LAUNCH | Tea Lattes and Tea Cocktails using David's Teas Winter Collection
With just over a month until Christmas, I'm sure everyone's planning their holiday gift lists and get togethers with friends and family - we're no exception! After visiting David's Tea's new & improved location on Queen West (they've moved a block East), I'm super inspired to recreate their tea cocktails and tea lattes using some of their festive Winter Collection teas!
How inviting do the above sugar plum sparklers look? Easily made by combining David Tea's sugar plum forest (rooibos) tea syrup with sparkling wine, almond liqueur and cinnamon, these tea cocktails are sure to be your best welcoming cocktails to your holiday party.
