Here are the coolest drinks making waves in Summer 2025:
Tim Hortons India’s Summer Poppers with Popping Boba
Tim Hortons India is stirring up summer nostalgia with a fun twist—introducing Summer Poppers with Popping Boba in three bold and distinctly Indian flavours: Spicy Jamun, Mosambi Litchi, and Aam Panna. Each one is a refreshing nod to local favourites.
Spicy Jamun delivers a tangy punch with a spicy kick.
Mosambi Litchi offers citrusy coolness with a tropical flair.
Aam Panna brings back the beloved raw mango sharpness—now with popping boba that burst on the tongue for extra excitement.
Available at: All Tim Hortons cafés across India, and online via Swiggy & Zomato
Price: ₹375/- (Large) on Zomato
Blessing by Fay Barretto (Mr Bartender and the Crew) at Miss Margarita
Drawing inspiration from ancient Aztec birthing traditions, this cocktail is as spiritual as it is sensational. Created by mixologist Fay Barretto, Blessing features chamomile-infused mezcal, green apple, green tea syrup, and a surprising splash of pickle juice—tempered with lime and a touch of vegan foamer for texture. Topped with tonic and blended with ice, it’s garnished with baby’s breath for a delicate visual flourish.
The result? Earthy, tart, soothing, and slightly pickled—like a sacred ceremony for your taste buds.
Available at: Miss Margarita, Greater Kailash 2 (GK2) and Gurugram
