All of the tea cocktails use tea syrups. To make these syrups, simply pour into a pan a 300ml cup of tea and add 150ml of sugar. Heat the mixture and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Taste for strength and add more tea leaves if needed. Depending on the cocktail, this syrup should be enough for 10 or more cocktails.
Tea cocktails?
Not sure about those as I don’t really like sugar with tea! but certainly an interesting idea!
Tea has an abundance of recipes and ideas – I seem to learn something new every day 🙂
Crossing all the teas?

Very interesting ideas about tea and herbal infusion. I’m intrigued, do you have recipes for these? Thanks!
