Earl Grey Cardamom Spritz
Tea, dressed up for evening.
- strong Earl Grey tea, chilled3
- cardamom syrup0.5
- fresh orange juice1
- sparkling water3
- ice
- 1.The Double Brew. Brew the tea with twice the leaf you'd normally use, five minutes covered, then chill it completely. Ice and bubbles will halve the flavor back to normal — brew for the drink it becomes, not the cup it starts as.
- 2.Ice the Wine Glass. Fill a big-bowled wine glass with ice all the way up — the wide bowl is where the bergamot opens.
- 3.Build the Base. Tea, cardamom syrup, and orange juice over the ice, stirred once from the bottom.
- 4.Top and Garnish. Sparkling water last, an orange wheel, and one cracked cardamom pod placed on top.
