Sugar Plum Fairy Cocktail

Fun, festive and celebratory, the Sugar Plum Fairy dances amongst sparkling champagne and pomegranate juice.

Champagne creates a light stage for the Sugar Plum Fairy’s notes of vanilla and strawberry to pirouette upon against a backdrop of festive and seasonal pomegranate.

Sugar Plum Fairy Cocktail

Created at St. Regis San Francisco by Mixologists Scott Berg and Eric Lauer.

Notes from Scott Berg, Mixologist at the St. Regis San Francisco:

“We created a simple syrup using the Sugar Plum Fairy tea, and let it steep for 15 hours to enhance the flavors. The longer it infuses, the deeper the flavor, but if you wait too long, the tea can become bitter.”

“It’s imperative to let it sit for just the right amount of time.”

Notes

In time for the holidays, TEALEAVES, in a collaboration with 15+ ballet companies, 10+ luxury hotel partners, and an antiquarian horologist, launched the worldwide Nutcracker #AfternoonTEALEAVES: Gifts of Time initiative. The project is a twist to the traditional gift guide that offers experiential pairings to afternoon tea, themed after the story of the Nutcracker, and celebrates the arts, true craftsmanship, and spending quality time with others.
