Mumbai: Third Wave Coffee, coffee QSR (Quick Service Restaurant) just concluded its week-long Mother's Day campaign - a heartfelt tribute to the unsung heroes of our lives – mothers. As part of its commitment to fostering community and celebrating the spirit of motherhood in all its manifestations, Third Wave Coffee embarked on a multifaceted journey to express gratitude for the extraordinary love and resilience that mothers bring into our lives and the multiple hats they wear.
Starting by celebrating the extraordinary women in our lives with the launch of “Mama’s Brew Crew,” a Coffee recipe book curated by the Third Wave Coffee community, this heartwarming collection features coffee and coffee-inspired recipes for food and beverages. Compiled with love, the recipe book is a testament to the cherished memories and culinary legacies passed down through generations. More than just a collection of recipes, “Mama’s Brew Crew” offers a glimpse into the special coffee rituals and traditions passed down through generations, and celebrates the timeless bond between mothers and their loved ones.
“We were overwhelmed by the incredible response to our call for submissions," said Ayush Bathwal, co-founder at Third Wave Coffee. "The stories and recipes we received are a beautiful testament to the important role moms and mom figures play in our lives. This book is a tribute to them and a perfect culmination of our mother’s day celebrations."
Featuring a diverse collection of recipes collected directly from customers through an open call across Third Wave Coffee’s social media channels. Of the total of 45 entries, 5 were shortlisted by the in-house Chef through a rigorous selection process which emphasised quality, nostalgia and innovation among the recipes received.
The brand also collaborated with luxury skincare brand Kama Ayurveda for Mukhaabhyanga Masterclass, a one-of-a-kind guided face yoga session across select outlets in Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore exclusively for ‘mothers’ of children, pets, and plants alike! The sessions saw an overwhelming participation of over 60 mother figures and included coffee-tasting sessions to sign off the session.

The in-store celebrations involved fun painting workshops for mothers and their children where they all painted depictions of the mother-child bond. Additionally, the brand also signed off with the release of a poignant reel that pays homage to the female baristas within the Third Wave Coffee family while extending gratitude to all mothers.
