VANILLA ROOIBOS RUM SOUR

The Dreams of Sunset tea cocktail is Andaz West Hollywood's creation, blending TEALEAVES Organic Vanilla Rooibos + Pantone 714C + Mood: Imaginative.

THE TEA MOOD
IMAGINATIVE

Organic Vanilla Rooibos, with its high vitamin, mineral and antioxidant content, restores the body and inspires the senses to soar.

THE MUSE
PHOENIX

Both Phoenix and the rooibos plant rise from earth to sun, evoking renewal.

THE COLOR
PANTONE 714 C

“A welcoming shade that embraces, this happy and friendly orange is good natured in spirit and delicious in its appeal.”

LAURIE PRESSMAN
Vice President | Pantone Color Institute™

Mixologist's Notes:
Blending Tea + Color + Mood

“When the Organic Vanilla Rooibos cocktail is first poured into the glass, everything is a single orange color. Once the drink settles and separates, the top layer of foam and egg white makes me think of cloud nine, triggering my imagination.”

— Herbert Yuen, Assistant Outlet Manager at Andaz West Hollywood

Dreams of Sunset

“With the tangerine peel and the Five Spice powder, you get a big bouquet of smells right when you first sip it. Then, mouthfeel of the egg white smooths out the strong aromas to create an imaginative mood.”
