MIXOLOGY RECIPE

The Pink Monsoon

CHAI PINA COLADA

The Pink Monsoon tea cocktail is The Beverley Hills Hotel's creation, blending TEALEAVES Monsoon Chai + Pantone 205C + Mood: Exotic.

THE TEA MOOD
EXOTIC

Authentically steeped in the complexity of hand-ground cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, ginger and pepper, this chai pays tribute to every mother's stovetop.

THE MUSE
ELEPHANT

Elephants speak to the exotic nature and origins of our Monsoon Chai.

THE COLOR
PANTONE 205 C

“Dazzling and dynamic, this bright, vibrant pink is passionate and playful.”

LAURIE PRESSMAN
Vice President | Pantone Color Institute™

Mixologist's Notes:
Blending Tea + Color + Mood

“If you come to the Beverly Hills Hotel, the Pink Palace, you're thinking of a sun-soaked vacation. And what better way to express that mood of exoticism, than a pink take on Piña Colada by infusing Bacardi Superior rum with Monsoon Chai?”

— Robert Rouleau, Director of Restaurants at The Beverly Hills Hotel

The Nutcracker Dessert: Caramel Sponge Cake

By Pastry Chef Ravindra Verma

The Pink Monsoon

Intrigue is found in our signature pink; equal parts glamour and SoCal spice.

“We were trying to create a spiced rum for our Piña Colada, and Monsoon Chai was perfect for infusing Bacardi Superior rum. Add in strawberry coconut puree and fresh pineapple juice, and we create the Pink Monsoon.”

- Robert Rouleau
