A Perfect Balance: New Zen Green Tea Liqueur Cocktails


 

 
Propelled by such popular Asian influences as yoga, sushi and feng shui, it is only natural that green tea is becoming a staple in the American diet.  At the same time, the popularity of the cocktail culture is driving liquor sales.  Now
Zen, America’s first Green Tea Liqueur has brought the two trends together. The tea leaves used to make Zen are grown in Kyoto, Japan by Marukyu-Koyama-En, a company that has been cultivating Japanese tea for more than 300 years.  Leaves are carefully selected and infused with neutral spirits for ten days. Then they are blended with a exotic herbs. The result is an authentic green tea flavor that a perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness.
