Inventive Indian Cocktails in New Delhi
Experience the dialogue between familiar Indian ingredients and global mixology techniques. We craft stories in a glass, turning street-side memories into sophisticated, balanced sips.
Our Inverted Marigold Sour is a celebration of floral flavors. We use sous vide marigold vodka, fresh lime juice, and a delicate marigold syrup, topped with golden cadillac foam. The result is a bright, aromatic, and visually stunning cocktail.
The Jamun cocktail is summer in a glass. We capture the vibrant, tangy flavor of the Indian blackberry in this striking purple drink, balanced for a punchy and refreshing sip that evokes seasonal nostalgia.
This is the art of crafting The Picante. We carefully combine the smooth elegance of tequila with the bright kick of fresh chilli and lime. The process is a study in precision, resulting in a cocktail that is both spirited and perfectly balanced.
Our Kulfi cocktail, featuring Bombay Sapphire gin, is clarified with milk to achieve a silky texture. The familiar notes of cardamom, saffron, kewda, and almond are layered to create a drink that is both a dessert and a cocktail.
The Twisted Homeopath is a bold and unconventional creation. We blend whisky with a house-made strawberry shrub and a surprising hint of jalapeno brine, resulting in a complex cocktail that is equal parts sweet, savory, and spicy.
The Piña Picante is our tropical cocktail with a fiery edge. We use coconut oil washed tequila for a smooth texture, balanced with spicy smoked pineapple, agave, lime, and a tajin rim for a multi-layered experience.
Our cocktail menu offers a journey through four distinct moods. This collection features diverse flavor profiles, from the crisp Green Apple & Elderflower to the spicy Mango Chilli, the tropical Coconut & Pandan, and the herbaceous Guava & Basil, showcasing our creative range.
Watch the creation of our Rose Spritzer. This light and floral cocktail is a fragrant blend of gin, vermouth infused with Damascus rose petals, lemon juice, and a rose shrub, all topped with sparkling rosé for an effervescent finish.
We reimagine the classic daiquiri with the floral essence of marigold. This bright, citrus-forward cocktail is infused with the golden warmth of the flower, creating a drink that feels like sunshine in a glass.
Our Highballing Watermelon cocktail is a refreshing tribute to summer. We pair the crisp, clean taste of watermelon with a subtle kick, garnished with fresh melon balls for a drink that is both simple and sophisticated.
About Inventive Indian Cocktails
Our bar program relies on precise methods like milk clarification and sous-vide infusions to bridge traditional Indian ingredients with modern cocktail culture. When you order, expect a drink that balances familiar notes like cardamom, marigold, or fresh chilli with the structure of premium spirits. It is about drinking with intention, where each glass reflects the nuance of our kitchen.
The intersection of Indian spice and classic mixology is rarely straightforward. To get it right, we look at the entire profile of a flavour. Our process is rooted in patience. Take our clarified Kulfi cocktail. It takes 24 hours of preparation to achieve that silky texture, ensuring the saffron and almond notes remain distinct without the heavy weight of dairy.
We believe a drink should hold its own against the complexity of Indian seasoning. Our menu is structured around diverse profiles, ensuring there is a partner for every palate. Whether you are looking for the bright, floral acidity of an Inverted Marigold Sour or the savory, smoked warmth of the Picante, our approach remains consistent. We use techniques that strip away the unnecessary, leaving only the essential flavours behind.
Beyond the signature list, our focus extends to the interaction between glass and plate. Our wine program, recognized by the Wine Spectator, operates on the same logic. We pair globally sourced vintages specifically against the heat and aromatics of our food, ensuring the spice of a lamb dish or the earthiness of an aloo tikki is enhanced, not overwhelmed. We invite you to experience this dialogue between our kitchen and our bar, served in the serene setting of The Lodhi.
