MURO’s Musing 2.0: Bengaluru’s Boldest Cocktail Menu is Here

If you thought you’d seen it all in the world of cocktails, MURO Bengaluru is here to prove you wrong. The city's favorite experimental bar has unleashed Muro Musing 2.0, a boundary-pushing cocktail menu featuring shrimp-infused drinks, Doritos in tequila, and India's first-ever highball carbonation station.

A Cocktail Menu Unlike Any Other

MURO’s latest menu is a playground of flavors and textures, blending unexpected ingredients into highly crafted, ultra-innovative drinks. Shades of Green surprises with a mix of Bombay Sapphire, prosecco, wild coriander, elderflower, and Laphroaig mist, while Dirty Ceviche takes umami to the next level with Tanqueray No. TEN, shrimp eau de vie, and michelada.

If you're feeling bold, El Mariachi infuses tequila with Doritos and fresh salsa, while Salida Del Sol turns up the heat with mezcal, cashew butter, and guajillo. And for those craving something sweet, Mango Sticky Rice transforms a beloved dessert into a cocktail, playing with contrasts in temperature and texture.

"Our creative process was simple—stick a hundred wild ideas on a whiteboard and see what works. But above all, our mission was to make drinks that are simply delicious," shares Sahil Essani, Bar Manager at MURO.

The Art of Highballs—Perfected

Highballs make a triumphant return at MURO with drinks like Coffee Pandan Rum, Burst The Bubble, and Melon Cream Soda. Using India’s first highball carbonation system, operating at -21°C, these drinks are carbonated thrice over and rested overnight, ensuring the perfect long-lasting fizz with every sip.

Zero-ABV, Full Flavor

Mocktails are a thing of the past. MURO’s zero-ABV menu brings the same creativity as its cocktails, offering layered, complex, alcohol-free drinks. A standout is The Garibaldi, featuring zero-ABV aperitif and fresh orange juice, nitro-charged for a Guinness-like silky mouthfeel.

"Cocktail culture is shifting—people want bold, savory flavors and non-alcoholic options that are just as exciting. This menu is about offering the unexpected," says Niharika Rawal, Co-Founder of MURO.

Drink Enhancers—Beyond Just Garnishes

At MURO, garnishes aren’t just for looks—they elevate the entire drinking experience. Take Sweet Chin Music, topped with lavash and creamy coconut namelaka, balancing boozy and creamy textures for a multi-dimensional sip.

This isn’t just a menu—it’s a sensory experience. Whether you're here for the mixology madness or the impeccable hospitality, MURO promises a night like no other.

 Location: MURO, Museum Road
 Weekend Only | 12 PM - 12 AM (New Menu Upstairs from 7 PM Onwards)

With five floors, each offering its own character and experience, Boston brings together the charm of a bygone era and the excitement of contemporary nightlife. Our vision is to build a space where people connect, celebrate and create memories. Ultimately, we want Boston to be remembered not just for the place it is, but for how it makes people feel."

The new retail format reflects the changing expectations of urban consumers, who increasingly look for quality, variety and thoughtful presentation alongside familiar flavours. While the outlet offers a contemporary environment, it retains the traditional appeal that has shaped the brand's identity. Its Golf Course Road location also improves accessibility for residents and professionals in the surrounding neighbourhood.

Om Sweets' journey began in the early 1940s, when Shri Hari Chand Kathuria Ji started a family sweets business. Following Partition, the family rebuilt its business in India. In 1960, Shri Om Prakash Kathuria Ji established a shop in Arjun Nagar, Gurugram, laying the foundation for the brand's growth. Over the years, the business expanded its offerings and customer base, developing into an established food brand with a presence across Gurugram, Faridabad, Delhi, Sohna and Palwal.

Commenting on the launch, a spokesperson for Om Sweets said, “At Om Sweets, our focus has always been on serving food that people can associate with their everyday lives and special occasions. Mithai remains an important part of what we do, but our offering today extends to savouries and a wider range of vegetarian food. With our Golf Course Road outlet, we are bringing this variety to customers in a contemporary setting, making it convenient for them to explore our offerings for different occasions while continuing to enjoy the flavours they know and trust.”

With this launch, Om Sweets continues to expand its retail presence and introduce its broader food portfolio to a new customer base. The outlet brings together the brand's established culinary offerings and evolving retail format, catering to everyday meals, celebrations and gifting occasions.


Wendy's India Launches Five Global Burger Flavours Under 'The Great Burger Scam'

Wendy's India Launches Five Global Burger Flavours Under 'The Great Burger Scam'

By Hariharan U

Published on November 7, 2026

Wendy's India has introduced five globally inspired burger flavours under its new campaign, 'The Great Burger Scam', with prices starting at ₹59. Launched in November 2026, the range brings international flavour profiles to the value burger segment, offering both vegetarian and chicken options priced between ₹59 and ₹99.

The new selection features five flavours: Chipotle, Chimichurri, Korean, Teriyaki and Makhani. The range combines smoky, herbaceous, sweet and savoury profiles with a familiar Indian-inspired option, giving customers a wider choice beyond conventional value burger offerings.

The campaign plays on the idea of a 'scam' by presenting a range of distinct flavour experiences at prices that may seem unexpectedly affordable. Wendy's positions the launch as an effort to challenge the perception that lower-priced burgers need to offer limited variety.

Commenting on the campaign, Mohit Mahajan, AVP – Marketing, Rebel Foods, said, "Consumers today are looking for more than just a good deal. They want variety, exciting flavours and experiences that feel worth trying. With 'The Great Burger Scam', we wanted to turn the usual value burger narrative on its head. Five distinct flavours, globally inspired choices and prices starting at ₹59, it almost sounds too good to be true! Through this campaign, we want to make flavour exploration accessible to everyone while bringing a little fun and surprise to the everyday burger experience."

The launch targets consumers, particularly Gen Z and Millennials, who are interested in exploring new food options while keeping spending in check. By bringing flavours associated with different cuisines into an affordable format, Wendy's aims to make experimentation more accessible to everyday burger customers.

The campaign also adds to the brand's efforts to differentiate its offering in India's competitive quick-service restaurant market, where value pricing and menu variety remain important considerations for consumers.

The new burgers are available at Wendy's India dine-in restaurants and through online delivery platforms.
