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.

Count Camillo Negroni asked for a stronger version of the <a href=”https://imbibemagazine.com/recipe-americano/”>Americano</a>. 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.
