Gin and tea

A gin and tea is a two-ingredient cocktail made from gin and tea. One advantage of this cocktail is that herbs and juniper berries are used to flavor gin during the distilling process,[1] while the tea has floral or citrus botanical flavours to play against. For example, a gin with citrus notes can be paired with Earl Grey tea, which has bergamot overtones; and a gin with fruitier notes could be mixed with green tea or a light oolong tea[2]. Floral teas are also sometimes used.[3] Isle of Harris produces gin and tea that can be used together.[4] English breakfast tea can also be mixed with dry gin and lemon juice.[5]
