THE TEA MOOD
ENLIGHTENED

Antioxidant-rich Organic Long Life Green supports health and inspires balance in a fast-paced world.

THE MUSE
KOI

Koi have great longevity. Their graceful, circular-swim motion symbolizes that all things in life are connected and together, create balance.

THE COLOR
PANTONE 349 C

“This lush green shade enhances our sense of well-being by inspiring insight and promoting harmony.”

LAURIE PRESSMAN
Vice President | Pantone Color Institute™

Mixologist's Notes:
Blending Tea + Color + Mood

"Organic Long Life Green tea is relaxing, meant as a high antioxidant detox. The Asian pear is another ingredient that's very subtle. Nothing in this drink is overly aggressive— it's green, clean and cool."

— Steven Minor, MO Bar & Lounge Manager at Mandarin Oriental, Miami

Hyde Park Haiku

“I decided to go with cucumber, Asian pear, sake and shiso. Shiso has a very unique flavor, almost cumin-like. We finished off with a splash of Prosecco to add effervescence and acidity to the drink.” - Steven Minor, MO Bar & Lounge Manager at Mandarin Oriental, Miami
