India may be a nation of tea drinkers, but amid an expanding middle class and a vast young population, coffee culture is gaining ground. Through its cafés, brewing classes and subscription service, Blue Tokai is helping to turn the country’s coffee novices into connoisseurs.

India may be an emerging beer market, but increasingly globalised palates and a rapidly expanding middle class mean demand for premium brews is on the rise. Among the brands filling this gap is Bira 91, offering home-grown craft beers for the nation’s young and discerning drinkers.

Of India’s 1.25 billion people, 65% are under 35. This massive proportion of the population is globally connected, with their income unprecedented for the country. And as spending shifts from staple to discretionary, health-conscious Gen Yers are shaping the future of the Indian food landscape.

In the past, eating out in India was more about convenience than the food itself, and quick service restaurants had reigned supreme. But with a growing middle class happy to splash out on fancier fare, Western fast food brands such as Domino's are losing their slice of the pie.
