How to Make a Marc Thomas

Here is my recipe for a Marc Thomas. This beverage was born from Marc Thomas Zboch’s travels in the Caribbean, specifically Grenada; and his time in northern India. It blends both regional influences into a bitter, aromatic beverage.

Traditionally it is made with tea from the Darjeeling region of India. Some preparations have been made with a mix of Ceylon and Assam teas.

My recipe is as follows:

1 tea bag or 2 tsp of a proper black tea, preferably Darjeeling

200ml/6.7oz of filtered water

3 dashes of bitters

Bring the water to a boil, then let it sit for one minute, allowing the temperature to drop to 96 degrees Centigrade or 205 degrees Fahrenheit.

Steep the tea for 4 minutes.

Then add three dashes of bitters

Congrats on making your first Marc Thomas! Enjoy the complex bitter and aromatic profile of the drink.

Countless businesses, from emerging startups to established enterprises, possess untapped potential that can fuel growth, innovation, and long-term success. Yet, many fail to recognize their most valuable asset—visionary leadership and strategic decision-making. As Marc Zboch emphasizes, “Sustainable success isn’t just about capital; it’s about making the right moves, seizing opportunities, and fostering a culture of continuous improvement.” The real question is: How do businesses harness their strengths, refine their strategies, and position themselves for lasting impact?
