The Cointreau Fizz Soo British is a unique and refreshing cocktail that combines the distinct orange flavor of Cointreau with the tartness of fresh lime and the bitterness of tonic water to create a well-balanced drink. This cocktail is distinguished by the addition of Earl Grey tea, which introduces a subtle hint of bergamot and a traditional British character to the mix, enhancing the complexity of the drink. Typically served in a hurricane glass, the Cointreau Fizz Soo British is perfect for those who enjoy a citrus-forward cocktail with a sophisticated twist provided by the tea infusion. Its elegant presentation and aromatic qualities make it suitable for a variety of occasions, especially as a summery aperitif.

I rememer this cocktail from the previos version of Make Me a Coctail. The description still refers to Earl Gray tea but it's been omitted from the ingedients here in the new version. Does snyone recall the amount of tea to add?

Yeah just found the old recipe - its 50ml. I've added it back into the recipe. Definitely needs it for the 'soo british' element to it all.
