A very refreshing summer beverage! I think vodka can be used for the gin or even make as a non-alcoholic drink. Also, it doesn't have to be jasmine tea, but that does give it a nice flavor. I use fresh lemon juice, but use store-bought grapefruit juice. I also use only 1/3 cup of honey. Be sure to start early enough to allow tea and honey mixture time to cool/chill. Time does not include the chilling time. From Bon Appetit Magazine. Ingredients:
1/2 cup honey |
1/2 cup hot water |
3 cups jasmine tea, freshly brewed and cooled |
3/4 cup gin |
3/4 cup lemon-flavored liqueur, limoncello |
3/4 cup fresh lemon juice |
1/2 cup fresh grapefruit juice |
1 cup club soda, chilled |
ice cube |
6 lemon slices (for garnish) |
limoncello, a lemon-flavored liqueur, can be found at many supermarkets, at trader joe's markets, and at liquor |
Directions:
1. Stir honey and 1/2 cup hot water in small bowl until honey dissolves.
