Description

Gin, cooled Earl Grey tea and apple juice make an aromatic garden serve with lemon for definition. The tea should be cooled before mixing to avoid unnecessary ice melt. Build and top gently to preserve the bubbles.

Ingredients

  • 35 ml London Dry Gin
  • 40 ml Earl Grey Tea
  • 35 ml Apple Juice
  • 15 ml lemon juice
  • 70 ml Ginger Ale

Instructions

  1. Prepare the serving glass. Use fresh ice for a rocks, highball or wine-glass serve; chill stemware for a drink served without ice.
  2. Combine 35 ml London Dry Gin, 40 ml Earl Grey Tea, 35 ml Apple Juice, 15 ml lemon juice in the prepared glass and stir briefly.
  3. Gently add 70 ml Ginger Ale. Stir once to combine without flattening the bubbles.
