The holidays are days away and there’s still so much left to do ‑ shopping, baking, wrapping, decorating and the list goes on! To perk you up and add a little pep to your step, we suggest you ‘skip the glass of red, for coffee and tea cocktails instead!’
Tia Maria, the iconic coffee liqueur known for its use in the classic espresso martini, just launched the world’s first-ever Matcha liqueur, which means they now offer coffee AND tea – a matcha made in heaven!
Tia Maria Matcha is an indulgent creamy liqueur with the distinctive flavours and natural caffeine of Japanese Green Matcha tea extract. It’s beautiful over ice and added to any coffee, tea or hot chocolate – but our new holiday ritual is the Matcha Martini.
