The Spirit of the Islands: Our Signature Sopi Cocktails
At PiriPiri, our commitment to authentic flavor doesn't stop at the grill. While our culinary roots are firmly planted in Portuguese tradition, our bar celebrates the rich heritage of Eastern Indonesia. That is why we have crafted an exclusive cocktail menu centered around Sopi—the legendary, time-honored palm spirit of the islands.
What is Sopi?
Long before modern distillation methods arrived in the archipelago, local artisans were perfecting the craft of Sopi. Traditionally distilled from the sweet sap of the lontar palm, this indigenous spirit is a cornerstone of celebrations, ceremonies, and welcoming rituals across Flores and the surrounding islands. It carries a unique, slightly earthy, and robust profile that speaks directly to its tropical origins.
A Collision of Cultures in Your Glass
We have taken this bold local spirit and elevated it with modern mixology, creating refreshing cocktails engineered to perfectly complement the smoky, savory notes of our charcoal-grilled Frango Assado.
Sip the Local Tradition
Whether you are winding down at sunset or looking for the perfect vibrant pairing to cut through the richness of the charcoal grill, our Sopi cocktails offer an unmistakable taste of the region. It is a tribute to the local land, expertly mixed and poured over ice.
Join us at the bar and raise a glass to the true spirit of the islands.
