What can I make with tea?
Cocktail Colin says:
Tea-inspired cocktails offer a delightful blend of aromatic flavors and refreshing profiles that can elevate any occasion. If you're looking for a top-rated option, the Green Tea cocktail is an excellent choice. With its high rating of 4.8/5, this cocktail combines peach schnapps, lemon-lime soda, sour mix, and whiskey to create a zesty and vibrant shot that balances sweet and sour beautifully, even though it contains no actual green tea.
If you prefer a more sophisticated option, the Earl Grey Martini (rating 4.76/5) might be perfect for you. This cocktail brings together the bold, herbal notes of Earl Grey tea with the crispness of dry gin. The addition of lemon juice and sugar syrup balances the strong flavors, and the egg white provides a luxurious mouthfeel, making it a refined option for any elegant gathering.
For those who enjoy a twist on classic cocktails, the Green Tea Mojito (rating 3.85/5) offers a refreshing blend of mint, lime, and white rum, with an added layer of green tea for an extra complexity. Similarly, the Tea Thyme Soda (rating 3.94/5) presents a sophisticated mix of bourbon, black tea, lemon juice, and cinnamon, creating a nuanced and aromatic drink perfect for leisurely sipping.
On colder nights, warming cocktails like the Christmas Tea Warmer (rating 4.46/5) or the Blueberry Tea (rating 3.89/5) can provide both comfort and delight. They incorporate ingredients like orange liqueur, amaretto, and black tea, offering cozy, spiced flavors that are sure to warm you up.
Regardless of your preferences, there's a tea-infused cocktail on this list that can suit any mood or occasion, from refreshing and citrusy to warm and comforting.
