Spiced Rooibos Punch

Spiced Rooibos Punch – The Aroma of Nostalgia

Atkinsons famous Spiced Rooibos  Punch is blended with a gorgeous, warming, spicy mix of cloves & cardamom, juicy apple and lemon peel. It is then adorned with thistle and cornflowers. Some mornings when we’ve been blending it, the whole shop is wreathed in a beautiful nostalgic aroma. It smells just like Christmas…

A Spicy Mixer for Mixologists

We stay open well into the night in our Manchester Café, the Mackie Mayor. So our teas and coffees have been re-purposed for the night-time revellers. We have now built a great reputation and a huge following for our range of Tea and Coffee inspired cocktails. With such a unique blend of flavours it wasn’t long before we found a home for the Spiced Rooibos in one of the world’s most iconic cocktails, the Negroni.

A Contemporary Twist on a Classic

Legend has it the classic recipe was cooked up at Caffè Casoni in Florence. Count Camillo Negroni asked for a stronger version of the Americano. In cocktail terms this is Campari, sweet Vermouth and soda. They achieved this heftier brew by replacing soda water with gin. We merely enhanced this already ruby-toned cocktail a stage further with the addition of our topaz-coloured Spiced Rooibos infusion.
