Pantone Classic Blue Spritz

Welcome the new decade with a Pantone Classic Blue Spritz. A boundless blue evocative of the vast and infinite evening sky, PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue carries notes of tranquility, dependability, and elegance.

Bringing style and sophistication to the table, the Classic Blue Spritz combines flavours of ripe blueberry and the airiness of cheerful bubbles to greet the new decade.

 

The keystone ingredient of this transitional cocktail is Pantone Color of the Year 2020 herbal blend; the official bespoke tea blend of the Pantone Color of the Year 2020, PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue.

Together with the Pantone Color Institute™, the global authority on colour design, TEALEAVES has embodied the Pantone Color of the Year 2020 through this wellness-focused herbal mélange. The vivid nature of the blend lends itself naturally to mixology such as the Classic Blue Spritz, as well as zero-proof beverages.

The Pantone Classic Blue Spritz owes its bold blue hue to graceful butterfly pea flowers, and is the ideal cocktail to serve for the New Year to convey a convivial message of timelessness; allowing reflection and an opportunity to re-centre our thoughts.

Suggestive of the sky at dusk, the reassuring qualities of the thought provoking PANTONE 19-4052 Classic Blue highlight our desire for a dependable and stable foundation from which to build as we cross the threshold into a new era.
