Les mots du Chef

Le thé 'Un Soir de Noël' incarne toute la chaleur des fêtes, et son infusion prolongée révèle des arômes profonds, parfaits pour sublimer ce cocktail raffiné. Le mariage du gin, du jus d'ananas et de la vanille, combiné à la délicatesse du blanc d'œuf, offre une texture onctueuse et légère. Chaque gorgée est une invitation à redécouvrir l'esprit des fêtes, avec une touche d'audace et de gourmandise, rehaussée par la feuille d'or et le citron séché.

Black tea and green tea both come from the same plant, Camellia sinensis. The main difference lies in the processing mechanism, notably the oxidation stage. Black tea is darker, as it is oxidized to its fullest for a more robust taste. Green tea, on the other hand, is heated to prevent oxidation and preserve its fresh taste and soft green color.
