UK-based tequila cocktail brand Pimentae has launched a new Tequila Espresso Martini, now available at Waitrose, Ocado and Morrisons stores.
The premium-positioned cocktail puts an agave-led twist on the classic Espresso Martini, combining Mexican tequila, rich espresso coffee and smooth coffee liqueur.
According to the brand, it delivers ‘intense’ notes of freshly brewed espresso, smooth tequila, dark chocolate and caramel, balanced with subtle sweetness and a ‘rich, velvety’ finish.
Pimentae said the 14.5% ABV serve is ideally suited to autumn evenings and festive celebrations. It is priced at £4.25 per 125ml can.
The launch follows the brand’s growing presence in UK retail, with more than 1,200 national listings secured since its launch in 2021.
Other recent product launches from the brand include its RTD Spicy Margarita this summer – a mezcal-based offering, marking its first diversification beyond tequila – and its Grapefruit Margarita last year, responding to the rising popularity of Paloma cocktails.
