1. Ultimate Fresh Margarita, Chili’s
One cocktail that has stayed on the top of my list throughout the years has to be Chili’s Ultimate Fresh Margarita. It hits the spot every single time! So, when you’re there next, do yourself a favour and try this lemony goodness.

2. Spiked Jalapeno Mule, Flow Brew & Dine
I’m a Margarita girl, but once in a while, I love to spice things up and Flow’s Spiked Jalapeno Mule does the job for me perfectly. Now, it might not be everyone’s cup of cocktail due to its sharp spiciness, but if you can handle some heat, you’ve got to try it. This drink is the perfect balance of sweet and spicy for me and gives my usual Margarita a spicy kick!
Location: DLF Avenue, Saket, New Delhi

3. Blossom Valley, Molecule
I love a classic G&T and we all know finding the perfect G&Ts can be hard. Even though I love them at Molecule, on one of my visits, I decided to get a little experimental and try a gin-based cocktail called Blossom Valley. It is a mix of gin, elderflower, mint, muskmelon, and basil, and the fruity drink was perfectly balanced.

4. Elderflower Gin Cocktail, Play Qutub
Vrinda recently discovered her love for cocktails and forgot all about her straight whiskeys. Her taste and choices have improved for the better and she approves of the Gin and Elderflower cocktail from Play Qutub. It strikes just the right balance and is her poison of choice now.

5. Chamomile, Kakapo
Another cocktail that made it to Vrinda’s list is Chamomile from Kakapo. It is a mix of chamomile gin, sage vermouth, honeydew, and malic acid, shaken together to create a concoction that will blow your mind! So, if you’re looking for the best cocktail spots in Delhi NCR, add Kakapo to your list.

If you’re a fan of clear drinks and can’t pick between a vodka or gin-based cocktail, you should go for Pravika’s recommendation. Her favourite this year was Elder Tree from Perch, which is a lovely concoction of vodka, gin, elderflower, lime, cucumber, and tonic.
