‘Tis the season of giving, and one of our favorite presents to receive during the holiday season are tunes to soundtrack this time of year. There’s nothing like the gift of new jams to add to the holiday playlist next to classics by The Temptations and Donny Hathaway. Just in time for Christmas, Xavier Omär delivers a special treat and brings Alex Isley along on the romantic duet “Peppermint Tea.”
The track is as wondrous as the title is refreshing. Xavier and Alex's harmonies greet us like a warm hug at the song's onset over the sound of jingling bells. He takes the lead, setting an inviting scene of chilling with his lady in front of a warm fireplace and sipping on peppermint tea. Isley is no stranger to providing soulful comfort and follows with a verse that goes down as smoothly as the beverage they’re both crooning about.
As the lullaby-like duet continues, XO and Alex elicit magical feelings of having someone special to enjoy the holidays with and being gift-wrapped up in their arms. The pair’s vocals are snuggled in a production that is both festive and soothing, proving to be the perfect love song for the most wonderful time of the year.
With its sweet lyrics and even sweeter sentiment, Xavier Omär and Alex Isley's “Peppermint Tea” will stir up heartwarming feelings in even the biggest grinch. Listen to the track below and add it to your seasonal slow jams playlist now.
