Inspired by the popular cuban libation, this version features our Assam black tea and fresh blackberries. Assam Fatikcherra Estate, or any of our black teas, brewed double strength and cooled (2 teaspoons of leaves per 6-8 ounces of water, or 1/4 cup of leaves per 1 quart of water for 4-6 servings)
club soda
fresh mint sprigs
superfine sugar
limes
blackberries
In a tall thin glass, add a generous handful of mint leaves and 1 1/2 tablespoons of sugar. Muddle the mint by crushing the leaves against the bottom of the glass with the butt end of a wooden spoon. Add 1/3 cup of blackberries, crush lightly. Squeeze the juice of half a lime (2 quarters), add to glass. Fill with ice cubes, add equal portions of tea and club soda to fill the glass. Stir gently and serve.
