The ultimate drink to pair with fiery Sri Lankan street food is fresh King Coconut water, known locally as Thambili. You will find vendors slicing the bright orange coconuts open on every corner. It is incredibly refreshing, naturally sweet, and instantly cools down the intense spice from snacks like kottu or achcharu.
