LBB is a girl's girl! And this women's day, we're turning to the LeadHERs who have broken rules, shot for the moon (and landed) and changed the entrepreneurial landscape of the country by creating, and leading brands that are truly women-made. One of the spaces women have made space for themselves has also been the bar world and what better way to know who to follow and who to keep an eye out for other than turning to Minakshi Singh? She is one of the OG movers and shakers of Delhi, a pioneering force in mixology and co-founder of India's acclaimed cocktail bars, Sidecar, Cocktails & Dreams Speakeasy, and The Brook. We caught up with her to ask about her favourite women mixologists we all need to check out immediately and perhaps head down where they are and grab a drink (with them!)

Aashie Bhatnagar - Bar Manager @ Cobbler & Crew, Pune
Not only is she a real dynamite (and tiny!) she is a highly creative, fun, and engaging bartender. She knows how to deliver a World class experience, since she is the Indian World Class winner, and was in the top 12 Global finals. She has brought India and Indian mixologists much joy, and continues to make us all proud.
Maria Tirkey - Senior Bartender @ Lair, New Delhi
Maria brings a unique voice to the bar. I have always enjoyed her presence and drinks and she projects the same too! What I love is that she is very poised and her Instagram reflects that too!
Siya Negi - Head of Bar Program @The Library Bar, The Leela Palace
Siya is a very creative bartender, who will always greet you with the loveliest smile and hospitality!
Ankita Bhbai - Bar Head @ Strangr, Delhi
I recently met Ankita, and loved her story and how she has come up against many odds. I am excited for her journey!
Sarbani Mukherji - Bartender @converstaion room Kolkata
One to watch! I am yet to get a drink at her bar, but from all I hear, she surely has been able to give me FOMO! (in real Genz terms hahah).
Shreya Basu - Bartender @ Banng
Shreya is a wonderfully fun bartender who has such great energy and hilarious stories to share. I think Shreya is set to achieve great things in life, as she is a massively giving, and a community driven bartender.
Pallabi Nath - Bartender @ Sidecar
What can I say about my own Bartender Pallabi. She is an overall superstar, loves chatting, (sometimes a bit much!), and is very very hardworking. I am grateful she chose us!
