Sri Lanka Is Drawing Visitors After Years of Turmoil — Here's How to Visit
"An open-air bar and restaurant set among palm trees across from a popular beach that champions regional ingredients and inventive cocktails; it helped put the area on the cocktail map by placing 29th on Asia’s 50 Best Bars. Signature drinks highlight local spirits and flavors, from a negroni made with a Sri Lankan gin (noted for native spice notes like cinnamon) to a Mai Chai — a tiki-inspired creation using house tea‑infused rum, spiced orgeat and triple sec made in-house. The atmosphere is festive and convivial, with lights strung between trees and a crowd of couples and friends enjoying date nights and weekend vibes." - Prasad Ramamurthy Prasad Ramamurthy Prasad Ramamurthy is a former Condé Nast Traveller, India editor with over two decades of reporting experience.
