If you're a coffee enthusiast and you love celebrating Diwali, here's some exciting news for you. Costa Coffee, the popular coffee brand under Coca-Cola, has unveiled its annual Diwali campaign, #CostaWaliDiwali. This time, they've partnered with Shivesh Bhatia, a renowned baker and content creator, to bring you a special Diwali-inspired coffee menu.

Costa Coffee and Shivesh Bhatia have come together to create a unique Diwali-themed menu that beautifully blends tradition with innovation. The highlight of this menu is the "Blisstachio Rose" beverage series, drawing inspiration from classic Indian sweets. This collection offers a modern twist to traditional flavors, and you can enjoy three delightful beverages: the soothing Blisstachio Rose Hot Latte, the invigorating Blisstachio Rose Iced Cappuccino, and the rich Blisstachio Rose Boba Frappe. It's a symphony of Diwali flavors in every cup.

Vinay Nair, General Manager, India & Emerging International, Costa Coffee at the Coca-Cola Company, shared their commitment to celebrating cultural richness through coffee. “At Costa Coffee, we are dedicated to embracing and celebrating cultural richness through our coffee. This Diwali, our collaboration with Shivesh Bhatia for the launch of Blisstachio Rose collection showcases our commitment to crafting unique experiences for our consumers. The skilful fusion of tradition with contemporary creativity builds a symphony of flavour that celebrates the richness of Diwali in every cup,” he added.

Shivesh Bhatia, the creative mind behind this Diwali-inspired menu, expressed his joy in creating a range of beverages that hold a special place in his heart. “I am thrilled to be joining hands with Costa Coffee for an exciting festive range of beverages. Creating this range using flavours that hold a special place in my heart, that I have enjoyed growing up has truly been a fulfilling experience. From brainstorming ideas to conducting trials and finally witnessing the Blisstachio Range launch, it has been an absolute joyride to spread festive cheer among people with the best of drinks,” he said.

To make your Diwali coffee experience even more special, Costa Coffee has collaborated with Shamon Sachdeva, a talented graphic design student from Anant National University. Shamon's designs on the coffee cups bridge traditional Diwali elements, like diya flames, with coffee beans. It's a creative way to embrace Diwali's spirit and Costa Coffee's commitment to blending tradition with innovation.

Costa Coffee recently marked a milestone with the opening of its 150th store in New Delhi. This is part of their ongoing expansion plan, which aims to establish more coffee outlets in the top 8-10 major Indian cities. Costa Coffee is committed to bringing exceptional coffee experiences to coffee lovers across the nation.

So, if you're looking for a delightful and festive coffee experience this Diwali, don't miss out on Costa Coffee's #CostaWaliDiwali menu. It's where traditional Diwali meets modern flair in every cup.
