BLUEBERRY TEA
1 ounce Amaretto
1 ounce
Grand Marnier
Hot Orange
Tea
Discovering
that you can combine alcohol with tea is one of the many rewards that have come
with my year of cocktails. It just never occurred to me before this year. But
on a Sunday night like tonight, after a disappointing Browns game and a disappointing
shopping trip, a hot tea comfort drink was needed. I found what I was looking
for at drinksmixer.com with the BLUEBERRY TEA cocktail.
I began
by making some hot orange-flavored tea. After letting it seep for about two
minutes, I added the amaretto and Grand Marnier, then stirred. There were many
things I loved about the BLUEBERRY TEA cocktail, and how easy it was to make
was one of them. I also loved how it was soothing, warm and pungent. Amaretto
is an almond liqueur and Grand Marnier is an orange-flavored liqueur. They
worked great with the orange tea. However, because of the name of this cocktail,
I thought they might somehow magically combine to taste like blueberries. Didn’t
happen, but by the time I got to the end of the strong drink, I did not care. I
was just ready to crawl into bed.
Drink Up^
