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.
