Jamun Eclipse
Inspired by the Revival of Indigenous Ingredients Through Modern Mixology
At Pangeo Bengaluru, Jamun Eclipse celebrates one of India’s most distinctive seasonal fruits through a refined and contemporary cocktail experience. Crafted using London Dry Gin, fresh jamun purée, grapefruit juice, citric acid, and sugar syrup, the cocktail undergoes a milk clarification process that transforms its appearance and texture while preserving the fruit’s vibrant character. The result is a crystal-clear serve that delivers the rich tartness of jamun balanced by the bright citrus notes of grapefruit and the botanical complexity of gin. Smooth, elegant, and remarkably refreshing, Jamun Eclipse showcases how traditional Indian flavours can be reimagined through modern cocktail techniques.
