Palate Jolt

The #PaletteForYourPalate Tea Entrée Palate Jolt is Tealeaves ICON and Executive Chef Antonio Cardoso’s creation, inspired by TEALEAVES Energy + Pantone 716C + Mood: Invigorated.

 
THE TEA MOOD
INVIGORATED

The Energy blend supports the mind when it needs to be keen, alert and ready to leap into action like the hare.

THE MUSE
HARE

The hare has long been a symbol of agility and quickness of foot.

THE COLOR
PANTONE 716 C

“Active and gregarious this high energy orange is radiant and hot.”

LAURIE PRESSMAN
Vice President | Pantone Color Institute™

Chef's Notes:
Blending Tea + Color + Mood

“Orange is a color that naturally exudes energy. The sweetness of scallops compliments the vanilla-infused puree, while pancetta adds a savory flair to the dish. Each bite delivers energy to the palate— a fantastic experience.”

— Antonio Cardoso, Executive Chef at Conrad New York

Palate Jolt

“The taste of mint, bergamot and grape in the Energy blend is concentrated as the light foam atop pan-roasted scallops. Then the earthy flavors of beautiful carrots and vanilla butternut squash purée grounds the dish.”
