DREAMY DRINKS FOR A MEMORABLE VALENTINE’S
Create the perfect atmosphere for an unforgettable evening and include an enriching drink to shake things up for your Valentine’s Day dinner plans. The most romantic cocktails tend to feature favourite aphrodisiacs like strawberries and wine; occasionally a bit of chocolate. We partnered with master mixologist and “Cocktail Cupid”, Nitin Tewari to craft drinks easy to mix up, concoct, and stir - ideal before, during, or after the meal.

Constantly enhancing beverage experiences by creating ideas and concepts for a wholesome experience, bartending has always been Nitin’s passion since high school. He believes a cocktail is not merely a mix of spirits and flavours, but also an epitome of art – taste, skill, presentation, and a story bring it to life.
