ABSOLUT Wild Tea

Absolut_Wild_Tea

ABSOLUT have launched ABSOLUT Wild Tea into the Australian market, the latest flavoured vodka which is a fusion of rich flavours from Oolong black tea with the delicate character of Nordic elderflower.

Known for innovation in design and vodka flavours, the black and golden patterns on the limited edition release bottle are representative of the balance between the sophisticated black tea and the freshness and fruitiness of the elderflower.

ABSOLUT Wild Tea can be enjoyed in an ABSOLUT Long Wild Iced Tea with lemon juice and cola, in an ABSOLUT Wild Apple Tea with cloudy apple juice and a slice of lemon and in an ABSOLUT Wild Gimlet with 2 parts ABSOLUT WILD TEA, 0.75 part fresh Lime Juice, 0.5 part Simple Syrup built over ice in a rocks glass and stirred.

ABSOLUT Wild Tea’s release coincided with Sweden’s midsummer celebrations and in Australia, the first 300 consumers to purchase a bottle receive a complimentary pair of Happy Socks from another innovative Swedish brand.

Keep an eye out for a national sampling campaign. The “ABSOLUT Wild Tea ceremony” commences in July and runs until August at select bars and retail outlets. Information is available from the ABSOLUT Facebook page.
