Black Tea Bourbon Cocktail

Serves 6-8/Preparation time:  10 mins

We use Silver Needle Tea Co.’s black tea, Golden Beautiful Eyebrow for an extra smoky flavor that pairs extremely well with bourbon. 

Ingredients:

3 cups of water
9 grams of whole leaf loose tea/3 tea bags
1 cup of bourbon
¼ cup of honey
1 lime
1 lemon

Preparation:

To make the tea:  Bring water to 205ºF and steep for 5 minutes.
Pour tea into the jar you want to serve in and add honey to tea.
In the same jar throw in lime and lemon wedges then pour in the bourbon.
Cover the jar and put in the fridge to chill or serve in chilled cocktail glasses to drink immediately.
