Junglee made a bold entrance with an intimate dinner and curated tasting at Semma, one of NYC’s most celebrated Indian restaurants. Founders Vishal Patel and Parit Pathak welcomed a dynamic crowd of media, tastemakers, and industry insiders to experience Junglee’s vibrant flavors firsthand and kick off Holi - the festival of colors.
Guests enjoyed Junglee’s distinct RTD expressions, including the Indian Spiced Lemonade, Green Mango Smash, and Tamarind Margarita. The tablescape was a visual feast, with bottles of Junglee artfully displayed alongside fresh ingredients like lemons, limes, and ginger - echoing the rich South Asian heritage that inspires the brand. Pairing together Junglee’s cocktails and a feast from Chef Vijay Kumar, guests were treated to a delectable exploration of South Asian heritage.
Attendees, including stylist Mohar Chaudhuri, Michael Tommasiello, model Madhulika Sharma, and author Mehr Singh shared their enthusiasm for Junglee’s unique flavor profiles and modern take on tradition, with further products launching within the next year.
