 At Gimlet Garden, cocktails transcend the familiar. The new menu is a culinary voyage in a glass, inspired by ports and coastal traditions from around the world. Each creation draws upon the language of cuisine, savoury-forward, nuanced, and layered, crafted with the precision of a chef and the imagination of an alchemist. Ingredients are treated as expressions of culture, truffle and basil, tamarind and green apple, squid-infused gin and shiso leaf, unexpected combinations that transform every sip into an exploration of taste and texture. The journey unfolds through a symphony of flavour. The Oaxaca Me Margata captures the smoky warmth of agave, cacao, and chili, evoking Mexico’s sun-drenched spirit. The Citrus Caravan Paloma sparkles with the tang of grapefruit and kokum, a nod to bustling markets across continents. The Siren’s Cove, a sultry blend of coconut tequila, mulberry liqueur, sloe gin, and black tea, washes over the palate like an ocean breeze, while Giloy offers layered herbal depth — tequila, Martini Extra Dry, Cointreau, and D.O.M. Bénédictine, lifted with Islay peat, Penja pepper, cucumber, shiso, and milk oolong for a complex, spirited finish. The Pescadito, inspired by Peru’s vibrant ceviche, reimagines the iconic dish in liquid form, bright, savoury, and delightfully unexpected.  Extending beyond the glass, the culinary menu continues this global exploration through a curated selection of small plates that harmonise beautifully with Gimlet Garden’s signature cocktails. From the spiced indulgence of The Bombay Guac, to the bold, citrusy freshness of Salmon Ceviche with Peruvian Tiger’s Milk, and the decadent Truffle and Parmesan Fries, every dish is designed for sharing and discovery. “Our new menu at Gimlet Garden is designed to take our guests on a journey,” says Nitesh Gandhi, General Manager, Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai. “Each cocktail and dish is a narrative in itself, crafted with care, creativity, and intention. Whether at golden hour or under a starlit sky, Gimlet Garden offers an experience that is both intimate and inspiring, where every moment lingers long after the last sip.” From the rhythmic energy of the city below to the serene expanse of the sky above, Gimlet Garden at AER is more than a rooftop destination, it is a luxurious escape in the clouds, where gastronomy and mixology meet, and every visit becomes a story worth savouring.
