To set the cookie in your example, you can do something like this:

return Response.ok(new Viewable("/index", model))
               .cookie(new NewCookie("name", "Hello, world!"))
               .build();

But if you want to redirect to "/" you would also need to return 3xx response instead of 200, for example:

return Response.seeOther("/")
               .cookie(new NewCookie("name", "Hello, world!"))
               .build();
