Elba Island Mocktail
Sunset over ice
Elba Island is a collision of flavour: two high-grade black teas, roasted cacao husk from Peru and Madagascan vanilla bean, the island’s most storied export. It unites in a mocktail like a frosted sunset of sweet orange peel and mint. As the layers of taste roll in, mere refreshment will be the last thing on your mind. The mixer is lime, cucumber and mint tonic water, either pre-made or easily concocted using fresh garnishes. Adding a few drops of organic vanilla extract is transformative.
