Alcohol

These brands are local to Goa and are good. I am also showing the price difference from rest of the country

• Greater Than Gin: Award wining gin. (Price in Goa: ₹850, price outside: ₹3000)

• Tickle Gin: Also good gin (Price in Goa: ₹650, Price outside: ₹1600)

• Maka Zai Rum: worth trying

• Paul John: They also do whiskey tours and their whisky is good. Internationally acclaimed

• Cabo: Sweet coconut flavored liquer. Very tasty and good for pina coladas

• Port wine: San Andre is good enough. All port wines are super cheap and super sweet but you can try them out if you haven’t

Coconut Vinegar

Coconut vinegar is distinct from synthetic vinegar and adds a unique flavor to salads and other dishes.
