Dubai unveils ultra-luxury mocktail experience at Jimmydixs, Barcelo Hotel
The concept was brought to life by Sucheta Sharma, founder of Boho Café Group UAE, alongside her sister Urvashi. Their vision was to create a non-alcoholic beverage that embodies elegance, emotion and artistry - offering patrons not just a drink, but a lasting memory. The mocktail was meticulously crafted by Fredrick, bar manager at Jimmydixs, who skilfully combined tradition with innovation.
This luxurious drink features a unique blend of fresh cranberry and pomegranate juice, sea salt, sparkling water, mint leaves, 24-karat edible gold dust, and EU-certified 24-karat gold-infused water. It is topped with 23.99-karat edible gold foil and dust, adding a dazzling finish. Presented in a handcrafted pure silver glass, the mocktail doubles as an artistic collectible, with the glass gifted to each guest as a keepsake.
"We didn't just want to serve a drink; we wanted to give our guests a moment of luxury they could own," said Sharma. "This mocktail is a reflection of emotion, prestige and craftsmanship. And there's no better place than Dubai to unveil such excellence."
The launch event was attended by a curated guest list of socialites, influencers and media, all treated to a gold-themed ambience, live music and bespoke service. A special highlight of the evening included a lucky draw, where the winner received the exclusive mocktail experience, two 24-karat gold-wrapped starters, and the silver glass - presented by guest of honour, Ankur Agarwal, chairman of BNW Developments.
At Dh12,099 (approximately $3,294 / INR 285,000 / PKR 925,000), the luxury mocktail has already generated buzz in the hospitality space as a symbol of opulence and creative flair. "Every drop tells a story," said Fredrick. "This is about more than taste - it's about offering an unforgettable experience that reflects the spirit of Dubai."
With this launch, Jimmydixs Restaurant & Lounge further solidifies its place among Dubai's premier dining destinations, appealing to connoisseurs of fine taste and those seeking bespoke experiences.

Artists and More Launches 'Lebanon 2030 Experience' — A $20 Million Entertainment Initiative to Rebuild Lebanon's Cultural Identity
Artists and More Entertainment, the Middle East's only ISO-certified entertainment production company, has officially launched Lebanon 2030 Experience — a bold $20 million investment aimed at reshaping Lebanon's entertainment, tourism, and cultural landscape. Built from the ground up by a young Lebanese entrepreneur who started with just $500 and a dream, Artists and More has become a symbol of what's possible when passion meets purpose. With over 120,000 tickets sold across two seasons of large-scale productions such as Christmas on Ice, the company has consistently delivered world-class experiences that uplift communities and attract families in thousands. Now, the vision grows larger. Lebanon 2030 Experience will bring immersive theme parks, stadium shows, touring productions, and permanent entertainment destinations — all created in Lebanon, by Lebanese talent, for the world. 'This isn't just about shows,' says Anthony Abou Antoun, Founder and CEO of Artists and More. 'This is about rewriting the narrative of a country that refuses to give up. It's about creating jobs, empowering youth, keeping talent at home, and proving that Lebanon can still lead on a global stage.' The initiative will span multiple cities and regions, fusing international collaborations with homegrown creativity. It aims to put Lebanon on the global map as a cultural and entertainment destination — one project, one smile, one family at a time. Lebanon 2030 Experience arrives at a critical time, offering hope, opportunity, and national pride through a movement that is as bold as it is necessary.
