Not only for the early risers on the green island! A strong black tea with intense taste of a decent lacing of rum really peps you up. The soft, sweet cream flavor cannot be missed in this classic, since it perfectly rounds off the taste experience. The special, abundant decoration of this black tea leaves nothing to be desired. The color combination of the Irish flag of white coconut shreds, green wild strawberry leaves and orange-red safflower will always remind you of the origins of this unusual recipe.
