It's also commonly used as a base for fruity shots or paired with other fruit juices to enhance the overall tropical vibe.

History: The name "Pisang Ambon" reflects its roots, with "Pisang" meaning banana in Indonesian and "Ambon" referencing the capital of the Maluku Islands in Indonesia. While its inspiration comes from Southeast Asia, the liqueur was developed and popularized in Europe by Lucas Bols, one of the oldest spirits companies in the world, dating back to 1575. The liqueur is a tribute to Indonesia’s rich and diverse fruit culture, with its tropical allure making it a popular choice for those looking to infuse their drinks with an exotic twist.
