Dark, citrusy, and just a little spooky. This spirited take on afternoon tea pairs bold Earl Grey with blood orange, spiced rum, and a rich honey syrup made from our Ruby Sipper blend for a cocktail that's perfect for crisp fall nights.
Ingredients:
- 4 oz brewed SerendipiTea Earl Grey Tea
- 3/4 oz SerendipiTea Ruby Sipper (Blood Orange Fruit Blend) Rich Honey Syrup
- 3/4 oz Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum
- 1/4 oz Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur
- Orange twist, for garnish
Method:
- Prepare the Earl Grey: steep 1 tsp tea in 6 oz boiled water for 5 minutes.
- Make the Ruby Sipper Rich Honey Syrup: brew a strong batch of Ruby Sipper using 3/4 oz Ruby Sipper to 4.5 oz boiling water, steeped for 5 minutes. Combine honey and brewed Ruby Sipper at a 2:1 ratio.
- In a cup (or cauldron) of brewed Earl Grey, add the rum, honey syrup, and Solerno.
- Stir and garnish with an orange twist.
Tea time just got a whole lot more wicked.
