Shaken & Stirred is seamlessly timed to rejoice the Indian summer. It brings along a new flavor of taste, new ways to serve the family and friends while leaving room to vitrine specific inventiveness.

At the launch event, Crowne Plaza hosted a dazzling consolidation of fashion, music, food and virgin drinks. It was an enjoyable evening with guests getting their books signed by the author himself.  Raising the tempo of the evening further, Chef did a blind tasting with select guests and asked them to guess the flavors in their refreshing drinks.

The idea of Shaken and Stirred evolved owing to dissatisfaction of customers towards wine or whisky in combination with meals. Moreover, the mocktails also were boring sometimes. Hence, to restore the taste he came up with the book bearing tasty recipes formed blending natural elements with drinks.
