We have memcached instances up and running in production. We want to

Does memcached instance automatically pick up new Timezone and what
happens to the cached items?
IIRC, times are tracked as relative to the local clock, so if you change
the system clock things will either expire late or early. It's probably
best to restart the cache server for this sort of thing.
But, changing the system clock is not the same as changing the time
zone. Time zones are only a formatting thing. A point in time is the
same no matter what the time zone.
