Summer and refreshing drinks go together like sunshine and beach days. When the mercury rises, there's nothing quite like wrapping your hands around an ice-cold beverage that's equal parts thirst-quencher and mood-lifter. And this year, the drink scene is coming in strong—with wild flavour mash-ups, nostalgic throwbacks, and bold, unexpected ingredients that are redefining what we sip on. Whether you're into tangy, sweet, briny, or boozy, there's something trending this summer to suit every palate.
Here are the coolest drinks making waves in Summer 2025:
Tim Hortons India is stirring up summer nostalgia with a fun twist—introducing Summer Poppers with Popping Boba in three bold and distinctly Indian flavours: Spicy Jamun, Mosambi Litchi, and Aam Panna. Each one is a refreshing nod to local favourites.
Spicy Jamun delivers a tangy punch with a spicy kick.
Mosambi Litchi offers citrusy coolness with a tropical flair.
Aam Panna brings back the beloved raw mango sharpness—now with popping boba that burst on the tongue for extra excitement.

Drawing inspiration from ancient Aztec birthing traditions, this cocktail is as spiritual as it is sensational. Created by mixologist Fay Barretto, Blessing features chamomile-infused mezcal, green apple, green tea syrup, and a surprising splash of pickle juice—tempered with lime and a touch of vegan foamer for texture. Topped with tonic and blended with ice, it's garnished with baby's breath for a delicate visual flourish.
The result? Earthy, tart, soothing, and slightly pickled—like a sacred ceremony for your taste buds.
