Tea Cocktail – Pomegranate Greenteani

September 15, 2016

This pomegranate and green tea martini is a fresh, fruity and totally scrumptious spring socialiser. Make up a batch of pomegranate green tea juice in advance, store it in the fridge, and this is quite possibly, one of the fastest and easiest cocktails to make.

How to make it

Infuse the tea leaves in the pomegranate juice using a tea infuser basket. It’s best to do this a few hours before you’re ready to drink the cocktail, or even the day before, and you can keep the tea infused juice in the fridge until you’re ready to use it. The longer the leaves infuse, the stronger the tea flavour.

After you’ve done that, it couldn’t be simpler.

Combine all the ingredients in a cocktail shaker and top with ice. Shake vigorously and strain into a martini glass.

Garnish with a few vibrant cherries or a twist of lime.
