Posted on February 07 2016
Easy and refreshing, this fruity black tea cocktail is a happy hour must-drink!
Ingredients
1 Stash English Breakfast or Organic Breakfast tea bag
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup sugar
2 oranges
3 large strawberries
2 ounces vodka
Directions
Steep the black tea bag in the hot water for five minutes. Remove the tea bag, pour the tea into a small saucepan, and add sugar. Warm over medium-high heat until the sugar has completely dissolved, stirring occasionally. Set aside to cool.
Add the strawberries and juice of the oranges into a blender and pulse until smooth. You can choose to strain the purée through a fine mesh sieve or use as is.
Fill a cocktail shaker two-thirds full with ice. Add 1 ounce of the sweetened black tea, 3 ounces of fruit purée and 2 ounces vodka. Shake for 15 seconds, until ice-cold. Serve immediately.
