Hey Guys and Gals! A gin infused with Earl Grey tea leaves, optionally sweetened. Ready the same day.
Ingredients
Step 1
8 tablespoons of loose Earl Grey leaves
1 liter gin (1 3/4 pints)
Step 2 (optional)
1 cup of water
1 cup of sugar
Directions
1. Combine the tea leaves and gin in a container and close it. Let it steep for 4 hours.
2. Strain through several layers of moistened cheesecloth, wringing it to extract all the liquid. Strain again through a coffee strainer if still cloudy.
3. For the optional syrup, bring the water to a boil in a saucepan and stir in the sugar, stirring constantly so it does not caramelize. Remove from heat and let cool. Add it slowly to the gin, tasting until it is sweet enough.
