On Republic Day, the mood in most Indian homes changes early in the morning. Flags appear on balconies, playlists quietly switch to patriotic favourites, and the table fills up long before lunch. It’s a day that is about togetherness. That’s exactly where Gracia Cero, by Kantala Spirits, finds its relevance.
Republic Day Celebrations Meet Mindful Drinking
As India celebrates its 77th Republic Day, Gracia Cero steps into the conversation not as a substitute, but as an option, one that reflects how urban Indian celebrations are quietly changing.
There’s more intention now. More thought around what we consume, who feels included, and how we show up for social rituals. With 0% alcohol, no sugar, and just 4 calories per serving, Gracia Cero makes it possible to raise a glass without stepping away from those values.
What sets Gracia Cero apart is its agave-forward character. It doesn’t taste like a compromise, and that’s precisely why it shines during festive occasions.
Republic Day gatherings often stretch across generations, from grandparents to kids to friends dropping in post-lunch, and not everyone wants or can consume alcohol. Gracia Cero allows everyone to be part of the same moment, glass in hand, without awkward explanations or exclusions.
This year, it also lends itself naturally to tricolour-inspired mocktails. Fresh mint and herbs for green serves, coconut water or citrus-led whites, and bold mango or orange-forward mixes for saffron hues.
These are decorative drinks, but they also pair comfortably with familiar Republic Day snacks of cutlets, chaat, and sandwiches, keeping flavours clean and light enough for daytime hosting.

Gracia Cero’s Zero-Alcohol, Zero-Sugar Proposition
Gracia Cero comes in two flavours, Raw ‘n’ Wild Mango and Pineapple Piñata, both playful, tropical, and well-suited for experimentation. Serve it neat, lengthen it with soda, or build it into mocktails using Indian spices and seasonal fruits. It’s versatile without too much effort and celebratory without tipping into indulgence.
Importantly, Gracia Cero doesn’t position itself against alcohol. The brand’s stance is simple: choice matters. As India’s drinking culture evolves, there’s growing space for people who want moderation without missing out on social rituals.
That shift feels especially relevant on Republic Day, a celebration rooted in freedom, responsibility, and collective identity.

This Republic Day, celebrating consciously doesn’t mean celebrating quietly. It simply means choosing what feels right, and letting flavour, inclusion, and intention lead the way.
