Apple-tini
“Your tea cupboard is a treasure chest of cocktail ingredients. Making great syrups is as easy as brewing tea and then stirring in sugar at a 1:1 ratio. If you have peppermint tea, you instantly have a great mint syrup for mojitos. Strong black tea syrups make an easy hard iced tea. I had a great apple tea, so I decided to pair it with a vodka distilled from apples for this flavour-packed Apple-tini.” – Chris Jacks
