Mendi Shares the art of mixology and his journey as a Cocktail Influencer on Instagram



What inspired you to start creating cocktail content on Instagram and how has the journey been since then?


I was actually looking to put myself out there and start with some content. I was looking for a category of content where I can so something fun. I didn't want to do any serious stuff. I realized that in India the education around alcohol, cocktails etc was very low. So I thought let’s start with educating India about cocktails. I specifically chose Hindi as a language of communication because there weren’t any creators who were doing so and I found a gap. The journey has been very enriching, have got a lot of love from the followers who relate my looks with Pablo Escobar, voice with Farhan Akhtar and my delivery like Aamir Khan. Its so much fun!


Mixologist

In your opinion, what distinguishes a luxury cocktail experience from a more casual one?    A luxury cocktail is something that attends to all the five senses.  Taste - It has to be balanced in terms of the harness of alcohol well balanced with sour, sweet or spice  Smell - 70% of our taste comes from smelling. That’s why we cant taste when we have cold. Hence mixologists spray the cocktail with oils like orange peel, lemon peel etc  Look - It should be a delight to see the cocktail with the right glassware and the right garnish. Clear ice is a must  Sound - this is something I believe just elevates the experience, the clinking of the ice with the glassware has to be very unique. There are these Japanese glassware which give you that experience  Touch - The right texture on the glassware can achieve

Smell - 70% of our taste comes from smelling. That’s why we cant taste when we have cold. Hence mixologists spray the cocktail with oils like orange peel, lemon peel etc

Look - It should be a delight to see the cocktail with the right glassware and the right garnish. Clear ice is a must

Sound - this is something I believe just elevates the experience, the clinking of the ice with the glassware has to be very unique. There are these Japanese glassware which give you that experience

Touch - The right texture on the glassware can achieve that.



Influencer For Instagram


When reviewing high-end cocktails, what specific characteristics do you focus on to highlight their luxury appeal, and how do you communicate that to your audience?

A high end cocktail has to be complex, yet so simple. It is a piece of art which the mixologist crafts for you. A story that the cocktail brings adds a layer of mystique to it. Crafting a unique cocktail which tells you a local story, the story that marries well with the theme of the bar can make the experience very wholesome. When reviewing such a cocktail, I like to know the story and explain the complexity in making that cocktail. What must the mixologist thinking when making that one.

What trends in mixology are you most excited about right now?    I am particularly very excited about infusions and molecular mixology. Use of various essential oils as a spray garnish also is a great way to elevate a cocktail. It could be an absinthe rinse or a smoky whisky spray. Clarified cocktails are a new trend which adds a lot of visual drama and mystery to the cocktail.

For someone looking to elevate their home cocktail-making game, what essential tools or ingredients would you recommend?    Somebody looking to elevate their home bartending should invest in a good equipment. A good shaker, jigger, muddler is a must. One should also understand the need for different glassware. There is a reason that a particular cocktail is served in a particular glassware. It elevates the sensory experience. One should also make a budget and build a bar collection of spirits of liking.

Cocktail Reviews

For those looking to carve out a niche in the luxury mixology space, what advice would you offer to help them stand out and succeed?


I recommend two books. Liquid Intelligence and Cocktail Codex. Read them over and over again and practice each time. It would require a lot of expenditure on the spirits and equipment but that is the way to go. No school will teach you more than these 2 books. Its the practice that counts.


Top Influencer In India

What are your future goals for your content and brand? Are there any exciting projects or collaborations on the horizon that you can share with us?


I would continue on my journey to educate the country on everything around alcohol. I make content for fun and that is something that’s most important to me. I am also thinking of launching an online course for home mixology enthusiasts to learn from. Lets see how it goes.

https://keonhacai5.net/ dạo này mình thấy nhiều người nhắc nên cũng bấm vào coi thử cho biết. Mình không đọc sâu đâu, chỉ lướt nhanh xem giao diện họ làm kiểu gì. Cảm giác đầu tiên là trang nhìn khá thoáng, không bị nhồi chữ quá mức nên kéo xuống cũng đỡ mỏi mắt. Mấy phần thông tin được chia theo từng khối rõ ràng, nhìn lướt là biết chỗ nào đang nói về gì, không phải đoán. Mình cũng để ý menu đặt khá dễ thấy nên đổi qua lại vài mục nhanh, không phải tìm hoài. Nói chung kiểu trình bày theo dạng khối và các bảng cột nhìn gọn, chữ và khoảng cách trên trang khá sạch.

sun win hôm bữa mình lướt thử vì thấy bạn bè nhắc hoài, kiểu vào xem giao diện có dễ dùng không thôi. Vừa mở lên là thấy họ để tiêu đề “cổng game chính thức 2026” khá nổi, nên mình đỡ phải đoán đang ở trang nào. Trang nhìn gọn, chia nội dung theo từng khối rõ ràng, kéo xuống không bị ngợp chữ. Mình dùng điện thoại nên để ý phần chữ và khoảng cách, đọc ổn, không bị dính sát nhau. Menu cũng đặt chỗ dễ bấm, chuyển qua lại mượt, không phải chờ load lâu. Nói chung cảm giác họ có chăm chút trải nghiệm hiện đại đúng như mô tả, nhất là cách bố trí…

hitclub6.it.com hôm bữa mình lướt thấy ai đó nhắc nên bấm vào coi thử cho biết. Mình không rành mấy vụ này lắm nên chỉ xem cảm giác dùng có tiện không thôi. Vào cái là thấy giao diện khá dễ nhìn, kiểu bố cục chia mảng rõ ràng nên không bị ngợp, kéo xuống một chút là nắm được trang đang nói về gì. Mình cũng để ý tốc độ bấm qua lại ổn, không bị đứng hình hay load lâu quá khó chịu. Nội dung thì thấy họ nhắc nhiều về hệ thống chạy ổn định với bảo mật nhiều lớp, đọc lướt cũng hiểu ý chứ không cần ngồi soi. Nói chung trải nghiệm ban đầu khá…

rophim hôm trước thấy mọi người trong group bàn tán nên mình ghé thử cho biết. Mình kiểu vào xem giao diện có dễ chịu không thôi, chứ chưa kịp đánh giá phim hay dở. Ấn tượng đầu là trang mở lên khá nhanh, nội dung hiện ra liền chứ không bị mấy hiệu ứng che màn hình làm khó chịu. Lướt một vòng thấy bố cục gọn, mấy khối phim xếp nhìn rõ ràng nên tìm cũng đỡ mất công. Mình thử bấm xem một phim có ghi Vietsub thì load ổn, chuyển qua lại giữa các mục cũng mượt trên điện thoại. Nói chung cảm giác dùng nhẹ nhàng, không bị rối mắt, và phần chia khối phim…

https://soicau247.com/ bữa lướt thấy trong group nhắc nên mình bấm vào nghía thử cho biết. Mình không rành vụ soi cầu hay chốt số gì đâu, chỉ xem cách họ trình bày có dễ nhìn không. Ấn tượng đầu là trang chia nội dung thành từng khối khá rõ ràng, kéo xuống là biết mình đang ở phần kết quả hay phần dự đoán chứ không bị lẫn. Mình có dừng lại ở mục “Xổ số Miền Bắc ngày 03/06/2026” vì thấy họ để tiêu đề ngày tháng nổi, nhìn phát nhận ra ngay. Với lại cái bảng lô tô đầu/đuôi xếp theo cột gọn gàng, chữ số đều và không rối, kiểu lướt nhanh vẫn theo kịp ngay trên…
