There was a time when “cocktails in Bali” meant rum, vodka, and gin. Not anymore.
Across the island and especially at Pavilion Surf Club something fresh is happening: the rise of zero-proof drinks Bali.

Whether for wellness, mindfulness, or simply taste, more travelers are swapping alcohol for handcrafted mocktails that look and feel just as special.

A New Generation of Drinkers

According to The IWSR’s Global Trends Report, low- and no-alcohol beverages grew more than 7% in Asia-Pacific last year. Bali’s beach bars are catching on.

At Pavilion, bartenders are experimenting with herbs, tropical infusions, and fresh juices. The results? Colorful, fragrant mocktails that feel like a celebration without the buzz.

The Pavilion Approach: Taste Over Trends

Walk into Pavilion Surf Club around sunset and you’ll see something new on the bar glass jars of dried citrus, pandan syrup, and fresh mint.

“We treat zero-proof drinks with the same care as cocktails,” says Dewa, Pavilion’s head bartender.
“It’s about layers of flavor, not just removing alcohol.”

Their “Coco Verde” mocktail, made with young coconut, basil, and lime, is now one of the most ordered drinks on the menu. It fits perfectly with the relaxed vibe of a restaurant in Legian Bali light, tropical, and refreshing.

Why It Works in Bali

Bali’s tropical ingredients make it easy to reinvent the cocktail experience. Fresh ginger, lemongrass, kaffir lime, and local honey give depth and complexity without needing spirits.

The warm weather and beach setting also make zero-proof drinks a natural choice. After all, nothing pairs better with sunset drinks in Bali than staying hydrated.

More Than a Trend

Zero-proof isn’t just a temporary shift. It’s becoming part of Bali’s identity a way for travelers to indulge consciously, and for venues like Pavilion to show creativity without compromise.

In a world where everyone’s chasing the next great drink, the best innovation might be the one that keeps things simple: fresh fruit, cold glass, ocean breeze.
