Best Cocktail Bars In Delhi NCR Known For Their Amazing Selection Of Heady Concoctions
Chic cocktail serving places in Delhi that need to be on your 'To-Tipple' list
16 Sep, 2020 by Gargi Bisht
We have come a long way as millennials since the time when all we knew about cocktails, we learned mostly from pop culture and sitcoms like ‘Sex and the City’. But when it came the time to put our theoretical learnings to practice during those early bar-hopping days, we soon found out that these heady concoctions were never as good as we imagined they would be. A cosmopolitan wasn’t as glamourous as Carrie said it would be, a Martini was never as badass as James Bond made it seem, and a Bloody Mary simply tasted like a weak blend of watered-down tomato juice and expired Worcestershire sauce. But in the last few years, the bar scene has really evolved with ace mixologists paving the way for the craft cocktail movement in India and in the process, breathing life to the concept of "Cocktails Bars'' that we all have grown to love so much. And inspired by this undying adoration for heady concoctions, here's a list of our top picks of some of the best restaurants and bars in Delhi NCR that serve great cocktails and need to be on your to-tipple list as well.
