A Toast to Burma Burma’s All-New Zero-Proof Beverages

At Burma Burma’s newest restaurant in Mumbai at Gourmet Village, Palladium Mall, the beverage program takes centre stage with an all-new Zero-Proof Cocktails menu. Created in collaboration with Soka, Bengaluru’s award-winning mixologist Avinash Kapoli and Burma Burma’s in-house beverage team. These meticulously crafted non-alcoholic drinks offer all the depth, complexity, and ritual of cocktails, with none of the spirits. And in true Burma Burma fashion, they’re anything but ordinary.

What happens when Burmese Tradition Meets Modern Mixology?

The new Zero-Proof menu isn’t just a novelty; it’s a narrative. Each drink draws inspiration from Burma’s culinary heritage, using ingredients like laphet (fermented tea leaves), jaggery, pandan, kaffir lime, sesame, and tamarind – all reinterpreted through a contemporary mixologist’s lens.

Take the Laphet Lush, for example. Earthy, umami, and utterly surprising, it blends fermented tea leaves with zero-proof grapefruit vodka, sesame oil, and basil salt, mirroring the same punchy, layered flavour of a Burmese pickle. Or try the Golden Highball, which channels the toasty sweetness of jaggery and salted caramel with apple juice and a dash of zero-proof whiskey, served tall and easy.

Zero-Proof, But 100% Bold. 

The idea was never to replicate alcoholic cocktails. It was to bring together the complexity of Burmese herbs and spices with non-alcoholic spirits. The Cane Glow is a vibrant fusion of fresh sugarcane juice, cranberry, and a bitter, zero-proof amaro, creating a drink that’s equal parts refreshment and ritual. Meanwhile, the Pandan Royale is pure indulgence: tender coconut water, aromatic pandan, and zero-proof gin come together in a chilled, silky blend that balances heat-heavy dishes like the Charred Edamame with Spicy Laphet. For a slow, lingering sip, order the Yangon Sunset, which is a smoky, ruby-hued blend of zero-proof whiskey, red wine, and lime that mirrors dusk in a glass. It’s moody, mellow, and quietly celebratory.

Crafted for Pairing. Designed for Discovery.

These Zero-Proof Cocktails aren’t standalone sips; they’ve been thoughtfully paired with small plates from the restaurant’s newest menu. Each pairing enhances the other, whether it’s the Ruby Dagger (a mix of zero-proof gin, white wine, and floral rhubarb) cutting through the richness of Shan State Cheung Fung, or the Elixir — a garden-fresh blend of watermelon, green tea, and kaffir lime — refreshing your palate between bites of Broc n’ Cheese.

Meet the Future of Mindful Indulgence

As conversations around sobriety and mindful drinking evolve, Burma Burma’s Zero-Proof Cocktails are ahead of the curve, not just as alcohol alternatives, but as flavour-forward, inclusive experiences for everyone at the table. Here, the beverage list doesn’t play a supporting role; it’s a full chapter in the story. And it’s written in bold, delicious detail.

So next time you’re at Palladium Mall, skip the bar crawl. Slide into a booth at Burma Burma, order a round of Zero-Proof Cocktails, and raise a glass to flavour, to craft, to culture, and to a spirited experience... even without the spirits.
