Similar to a lemonade or limeade, but with a flavorful, low in sugar twist and all-natural ingredients. It's a Nimbu Pani - a drink that has been enjoyed for centuries in India. It’s a refreshing beverage, often made from a blend of lemon or lime, herbs and spices (ginger, mint, turmeric, basil, cumin) plus sugar and water. Bollygood was created to give everyone a taste of my parents' homeland from Kerala, India.

Our Story
I was born and raised in Canada. My parents immigrated from Kerala, India in the 1960s seeking a better life. Growing up my family visited India many summers, as it was important to understand my heritage, traditions, ethnicity, food and lifestyle… I was born and raised in Canada. My parents immigrated from Kerala, India in the 1960s seeking a better life. Growing up my family visited India many summers, as it was important to understand my heritage, traditions, ethnicity, food and lifestyle of my Indian culture. I loved the Bollwood movies, the elephant rides I experienced, along with the vibrant colors, crowds, hospitality and warmth India gave to me. I combined all of these great memories and turned it into Bollygood! Bollygood was created to spread happiness and culture through our Indian-inspired beverages and to see my East Asian culture represented on the shelves.
