From old-school mojitos and Long Island Iced Teas to the hip negroni sbagliatos and infused gin blends, the desi tippler’s cocktail cravings are evolving with a burst of new flavours, spirits, techniques, ingredients and mixologists. To celebrate the country’s burgeoning cocktail culture, India Cocktail Week is a carnival blending eclectic spirits, mixes, bar takeovers, food, music, retail therapy and more.
In Mumbai for the first time, the week-long celebration will culminate at a two-day cocktail village, which will offer more than 150 drinks to choose from. Rakshay Dhariwal, co-founder and director at India Cocktail Week, and Sunny Sara, Mumbai curator of the event, share that the festival was conceptualised to showcase how the Indian cocktail scene is raising the bar globally. “Our cocktail bars today are no longer second to any other country in the world. That’s slowly being recognised by the likes of 50 Best Bars. Our aim is to garner attention to India’s cocktail culture,” Dhariwal explains, while Sara adds, “We wanted to give a prominent platform to these great mixologists and spirits.” With the fest just days away, here are The Guide’s top five picks.
