The Trafalgar Hotel is the first to serve up roispresso

The Trafalgar Hotel is proud to become the first London venue to add Roispresso to its menu. An innovative and unique drink, Roispresso combines the South African red tea, rooibos, renowned for its high levels of antioxidants (four times that of green tea), combined with carefully chosen superfoods, for a natural, nutritious and caffeine-free hot drink. As of 1 March, Roispresso will be launching in London, with its exclusive debut at Rockwell Bar.

With its chic design and buzzing London atmosphere, the award-winning Rockwell Bar is the perfect fit for the innovative and exciting Roispresso concept. A new drink for the healthy, modern lifestyle, Roispresso is the ideal choice for tea and coffee lovers alike. Whether sampled as a convenient pick-me-up for commuters on-the-go, a long drink over breakfast, a refreshing accompaniment to afternoon tea or a caffeine-free alternative to a late night coffee, Roispresso can be enjoyed by everyone on any occasion.

Uniquely, it can be prepared just like coffee in various forms, as a short or long drink; with or without milk. Ordered as an espresso, macchiato, cappuccino, latte, americano, bianco or ice tea, Roispresso is 100% caffeine free, but offers all the diversity of coffee and added health benefits.

High in nutritional value and antioxidants, Roispresso superfood options include goji, guarana, ginseng, mint, pollen and chamomile, with each ingredient possessing its own special quality:

• Classic – caffeine-free and high in antioxidants, Roispresso is a healthy alternative to regular tea or coffee.

• Guarana & Acai – traditionally used by the Indians of the Amazon to fight fatigue, containing a natural form of caffeine. Acai adds that extra antioxidant boost.

• Chamomile and Pollen - offer anti-bacterial properties, boosting the immune system

• Goji - a rich source of antioxidants, promoting overall health

• Mint - an excellent source of vitamins, as well as being rich in iron, magnesium, calcium and other nutrients. Renowned for its calming effect.

• Ginseng & Orange - known for its stress-relieving and energy-lifting properties

With seven methods of preparation and six different flavours, there are 42 different ways to enjoy Roispresso, but only one location in London in which to do it.

Jurgen Ammerstorfer, general manager at The Trafalgar Hotel, said, “We are thrilled to be the very first venue in London to offer Roispresso to our guests. With its delicate taste and added health benefits, Roispresso is the perfect choice for busy lifestyles in need of that extra boost. The Trafalgar Hotel continues to develop its food and drink offerings, to ensure the very best in customer experience and we’re excited to add such an innovative and unique addition to our menu.”

Guests can either sip on a Roispresso in Rockwell Bar or order a take-out cup. Regular size Roispresso drinks start from £3.50 for an americano. Located in the heart of London, Rockwell Bar is a sophisticated city venue, serving up British inspired contemporary food with a seasonal influence. Guests can also enjoy unique art installations by guest artists, a laid back atmosphere, great music and expertly mixed cocktails.
