To brighten up your afternoon soirees and kick up your house party celebrations, Jimmy’s Cocktails and Pernod Ricard India have got you three delectable cocktail concoctions to add zeal to your celebration.
If you’re staying in and planning a house party, splurge on a bottle of whiskies and explore some fruity, delish concoction mixes at home. Let's go on a boozy binge with these cocktails to start off a relaxing weekend.
Mr. Ankur Bhatia, Founder & CEO, Jimmy’s Cocktails adds “Whisk(e)y has always been used to make cocktails and been a favourite with consumers. Whisk(e)ycocktails have also been a part of pop culture, think Don Draper sipping on an Old Fashioned. In fact, when you search for Cocktails, at least three Whisk(e)y-based drinks feature in the Top 10 list. The category now faces an all-new set of consumers who often make their entry into the category through now-classic drinks like the Whiskey Sour, given how balanced the drink is and how well Whisk(e)y takes to the cocktail. That’s actually a favourite even at my home bar, especially when served with a slice of orange.
