yummy!
The Blueberry Tea cocktail has been a favorite of mine for many years and I usually ordered them out but rarely made them at home. I use a nice Earl Grey in mine instead of the Orange Pekoe and I think it’s a very nice alteration. Favorite winter time soother!
I like to drink this when I’m sick with a cold too. I steep fresh ginger slices with the tea and add honey. Makes me feel better and helps me sleep.
I made this as described and it was lovely. It was so good that I finished that drink and immediately made another. My husband didn’t like his, so I poured his over ice and drank that as well. Even better on ice. Is drank a real word? My only criticism is that it is potent and delicious and I am drunk. Next time i.will double the tea and halve my consumption. ACES!
I love this cocktail. I enjoy making it with an earl grey tea.
The classic west coast version of this is slightly different. Add a muddled wedge of orange to the sniffer and a cinnamon stick. Also consider a good Earl Grey such as Mighty Leaf to accentuate the citrus flavours.
And what makes it better is a tbl spoon of whip cream on top!! So good!
It is a great tea to relax in the evening. It will send you to bed with a smile
