Pairing Bandeja Paisa correctly — a note on agua panela sugarcane drink

Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Bandeja Paisa. I ordered it with agua panela sugarcane drink and the savoury and satisfying elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. fresh guanábana in particular became more prominent in a good way.

Colombian cuisine varies dramatically between the coastal Caribbean, Andean, and Amazonian regions. The a coastal Caribbean seafood restaurant is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Bandeja Paisa with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
