In keeping with its commitment to setting new standards, Occidental Eden Beruwala recently unveiled an artfully curated new beverage menu. 

The launch, held at Champs Bar, blends contemporary luxury with local heritage, offering a unique mixology experience exclusive to the region. The new offerings provide a compelling reason for guests to explore more than just the stay, immersing themselves in a journey of innovative libations and creative craftsmanship.

The event showcased inventive beverages crafted with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Signature drinks such as the “Elegance Curry Tea Martini” and “Tamarind Margarita” embody a masterful fusion of local flavours and global mixology techniques. The “Elegance Curry Tea Martini” blends the iconic Sri Lankan curry leaf with parmesan-infused gin, martini extra dry and house-brewed black tea kombucha. The refreshingly citrusy curry leaves provide a herbal depth that compliments the sharp gin, while the kombucha adds a tangy layer, representing Sri Lanka’s tea culture and the health benefits of fermentation. The “Tamarind Margarita”, made with locally sourced tamarind, premium tequila and a chili salt rim, balances sweet, sour and spicy notes, while highlighting the digestive and cooling properties of sweet-sour tamarind. Both drinks celebrate the island’s native ingredients and is a nod to Occidental Eden’s effort to incorporate sustainable farming measures into its offerings.

The bar’s uniqueness lies in its vision for long-term food sustainability and mindfully-sourced ingredients while fostering relationships with local suppliers. Every sip reflects Sri Lanka’s rich natural resources and the hotel’s dedication to minimising its environmental impact, offering guests an indulgence that’s both socially responsible and luxurious at the same time. 

The Champs Bar provides a distinctive retreat, blending modern luxury with local aesthetics. With panoramic ocean views and a stylish yet comfortable environment, it’s a space for intimate conversations or social gatherings. The Bar pairs its expertly crafted beverage menu with locally inspired tapas, creating an elevated dining experience in a setting that goes beyond the standard hotel bar.

Browns Hotels and Resorts CEO Eksath Wijeratne said: “This signature beverage menu is a true reflection of our commitment to innovation and excellence. Each cocktail and mocktail has been carefully crafted to offer a unique experience that you won’t find anywhere else in the region. Occidental Eden Beruwala continues to set new standards, and this exclusive menu is yet another step in elevating our guests’ experience.”
