COMO Beach Club
Throughout August, COMO Beach Club presents Flavours of Freedom, an exclusive collection of six cocktails inspired by the colours, ingredients and character of the Indonesian archipelago. Each creation draws upon a different expression of the country—from its celebrated spices and tropical produce to the enduring symbols of independence and national pride.
The story begins with Garuda 45, a bold and quietly powerful cocktail named after the year Indonesia declared its independence. Dark rum and spiced arak are balanced with palm sugar and tart tamarind, creating a rich, complex serve that reflects the strength and significance of 1945. Batavia Storm brings the energy of the capital to the coast. Light rum, gula jawa and lime are lifted by the lively spice of Batavia ginger beer, resulting in a bright and refreshing highball with a spirited kick.
Indonesia’s national colours take centre stage in Red and White Elixir. Inspired by the Merah Putih, vibrant strawberry forms the red layer, while a soft coconut foam provides its creamy white finish. Playful in presentation yet rooted in meaning, the cocktail offers a refreshing tribute to the flag that unites the nation. The journey continues through the fragrant landscapes of the archipelago with Nusantara Spice. Pandan, clove honey and spiced rum come together in an aromatic composition that celebrates Indonesia’s long and storied relationship with spice.
Garuda Golden Flight captures a more tropical expression of the national emblem. Aged rum is blended with ripe mango, passionfruit and vanilla, then finished with a delicate golden accent. Smooth and indulgent, it evokes the warmth and richness of the islands. Completing the collection is Spirit of Nusantara, an arak-led cocktail layered with kaffir lime, lemongrass and honey. Fresh, herbal and unmistakably Indonesian, it brings the collection back to the ingredients and traditions that inspired it.
Six cocktails. Countless flavours. One shared celebration of freedom. Flavours of Freedom is available throughout August 2026 at COMO Beach Club at IDR 185,000++ per cocktail.
