Diwali is right around, folks! 

It’s always great to meet family and friends on festive nights and have a hella lot of fun. We enjoy munching on the delicious grand feasts on Diwali, and c’mon, who doesn’t like mithai!  What better than our homes filled with happiness and the aroma of good food, and what better way to lighten up our hearts and marking the moment with a few drinks.

We bring you some of the best combinations of drinks to share with your family and besties for this festive season.

Apple Spice Iced Tea

A boring company is never fun, but a nice drink can fix that! Let your happy hours begin this Diwali with the delicious Apple Spice Iced Tea from one of our favourite brands - Tea Trunk.

Here’s what you’ve gotta do.

Apple Spice Tea is a classic in every drop. Combine black tea bags, apple spice tea bags, orange zest, ginger, cinnamon stick, cloves and honey in a bowl. Pour boiling water and leave it for few minutes. Add apple juice and strain into a pitcher. Serve it with ice, orange zest, and you’re good to go!

Mint Mojito Iced Coffee

Who doesn’t like a satiating mocktail ready in a minute? With Mint Mojito Iced Coffee, you can always play safe....or not!  The rich trio of coffee, mint and a dash of vanilla can never go wrong. Adding the all-natural honey from Raw7 will just make it tastier. You can always play around with the ingredients to impress your guests!

Here’s what you’ve gotta do.

Well, for starters, brew up an excellent cuppa coffee. Take a dozen fresh mint leaves and honey, muddle the leaves until the minty oils mix with honey and make you go yum! Don’t forget to pour in a few drops of vanilla essence, ice and shake it thoroughly. Add some alcohol if you are tempted to make it a cocktail ;) .. nobody’s gonna know…they’re gonna know... how would they know?

Espresso Martini

When life happens, espresso actually helps! Now imagine, this espresso with a shot of Vodka! Say whaaaaaa?  Yes, you guessed it right, an Espresso Martini! You should try out and make this killer chic and classy cocktail this Diwali for sure!

‍

Here’s what you’ve gotta do.

All you have to do is chill yourself, and the espresso brewed from Araku and place it in a martini shaker. Fill it with ice, add honey and shake until well-mixed. Pour it in a martini glass and jazz it up with some cinnamon on the top. It couldn’t be any easier to make. Thank us later!

Cold Brew G & T

There’s nothing a cocktail can’t fix. If it’s gin, well, you are having a lucky break. It’s definitely a boozy way to enjoy your coffee this Diwali. I don’t know about you guys, but our team is a complete sucker for Coffee Cocktails!

Here’s what you’ve gotta do.

Firstly, you gotta prepare espresso using Country Bean Caramel coffee. Pour in some freshly squeezed orange juice in a glass followed by a shot of gin and tonic. Umm, already sounds like the tastiest mixed drink to exist. Add the espresso and garnish as per your likes. Voila! This rich cocktail is ready for all the coffee and gin lovers! 

Cranberry Tea Cocktail

‍

Here’s another gem for you guys. The sparkling cranberry tea cocktail, a sophisticated drink worth dying for. A combination of tea, cranberry juice and vodka will make you love this drink even more. It is an excellent recipe of these mixed ingredients with both traditional and a modern touch.

Here’s what you’ve gotta do.

Let’s chat through a little more for it, shall we? First things first, bring a boil to a small amount of water and sugar. Pour over tea bags from The Tea Shelf and discard them after a couple of minutes and let it cool. Add in cranberry juice, vodka and any orange-flavoured liqueur and stir in ginger ale just before serving…  Wowzaaa! 

Cosmopolitan Cocktail

We believe Jimmy’s Cocktails is a modern invention that is here to stay. If you are calorie or carbs conscious and like to skip the ‘let’s have a drink’ part, Jimmy’s a perfect choice for you. The Cosmopolitan Cocktail is a perfect blend of fruity and all-natural flavours, which we highly recommend this Diwali. If you are an I-don’t-drink person, you’ll love these cocktails even more.

Here’s what you’ve gotta do.

A bottle can make up to 2 finely crafted cocktails. You just have to pour it over ice and Vodka or ice and Gin, and you’re good to go. On another happy note, you can straight up pour it on ice and enjoy it as a mocktail! This Cosmopolitan just takes just 2 mins to make and tastes like heaven!

Enjoy!
