Mixologist's Notes:
Blending Tea + Color + Mood
“Bold means you can do whatever you want. Make it look crazy. Really go for it with the color and the ingredients, including the Organic English Breakfast tea. In this case, I thought Pop Rocks was also a bold choice.”
— Shannon Marshall, Bartender at Four Seasons Hotel Toronto
The Bold and The Blue-Teaful
“I created an infusion with the tea, then used blueberries as both sweetener and natural food dye. Complementing the flavors is the gentle effervescence of Perrier-Jouët Champagne.”
- Shannon Marshall
