THE CITYSCAPE IN A GLASS

Imagine the sunset and the beautiful winter line created by it and top that with the falling AQI of Delhi and a breathtaking view of the Lutyens.

Does it get any better? Yes, it does, when you have delicious Delhi-inspired cocktails to go with it and to be able to gauge where the inspirations for these cocktails came from. If you think about it, then you will notice there's inspiration all around us—one just has to tap on it.

Last week I found myself enjoying the most surreal sunset at one of Delhi's most iconic luxury properties, The Oberoi. From their rooftop bar Cirrus 9, one can soak in the views of the Delhi Golf Club (DGC), Humayun's Tomb, India Gate and Rashtrapati Bhavan on any given day.

Globally renowned bar and beverage consultant Giancarlo Mancino has joined hands with the mixologists at Cirrus 9 to create a Delhi skyline-inspired cocktail menu, but that's not all! What catches one's eye is the bespoke three-dimensional sustainable glassware—it offers a luxurious and elevated experience, redefining the art of indulgence.
