Makes 1 cocktail.

This tea cocktail is the perfect companion for a relaxing Friday evening, where you want to enjoy a refreshing drink and show off your skills to your friends!

It combines the earthiness of pu-erh tea with whisky. To give it a tangy twist and balance it out, it uses fresh lemon.

A must for any autumn cocktail party!

You'll need

• 50ml Bourbon whisky
• Juice of half a lemon
• 2 teaspoons of pu-erh tea
• 1 egg white
• 7.5ml Agave syrup (1 teaspoon)
• Ice
• 1 sprig red currants

How to make

1. For the Pu-erh infused whiskey: combine the tea and the bourbon in a jar or cup and cover. Let it steep for 2 to 4 hours to absorb the flavours of the pu-erh. For a stronger infusion, leave overnight.
2. Add the fresh lemon juice, egg white, agave syrup, pu-erh infused whisky and ice into a cocktail shaker.
3. Shake vigorously until the outside of the shaker is cold.
4. Strain into a short glass over ice.
5. Garnish with a sprig of red currants.
