Green Tea Gin and Tonic

teas.co.uk · 10 min plus chilling · Makes 2 glasses

You'll need

• 2 tea bags of Twinings Pure Green Decaf Tea
• 150ml freshly boiled water, cooled for about a minute (around 80C)
• 50ml gin
• 200ml chilled tonic water
• 1 lemon, half juiced and half sliced
• Plenty of ice

Method

1. Let the boiled water stand for about a minute, steep the 2 bags for 3 minutes, then lift them out without squeezing and chill.
2. Fill two glasses with ice and divide the chilled tea and gin between them.
3. Top with chilled tonic water and add the lemon juice.
4. Stir gently, finish with lemon slices, and serve straight away.
5. Serve it in a wine glass rather than a tumbler: the wider bowl lets the gin botanicals open up.
