I'm so excited to have Janette from Culinary Ginger guest hosting for me today sharing these gorgeous Earl Grey Ginger Spritzers. She has a gorgeous blog full of lots of delicious, healthy recipes!
I personally can't wait to try these Earl Grey Ginger Spritzers!
A simple 2 ingredient drink perfect for sipping on those warmer days or evenings as the sun goes down.
More than 60 billion (that's billion with a 'b') cups of tea are consumed in Britain every year, wow.
Earl Grey is one of the most popular teas to drink and is not just used to drink hot out of tea cups anymore.
I'm seeing tea being added more recently in alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, just like this Earl Grey ginger spritzer.
A shot of Vodka, Rum, Whisky, or your favorite Alcohol could be added each glass to make this a cocktail.

To achieve the 'layered' look of the drink, I first poured the more viscous (thicker) of the 2 liquids, the ginger beer, to half fill the glass.
I then poured the tea into a jug with a small spout because I want a slow pour. I tilted the glass and poured the tea as slowly as I could (and got some spillage) down the side of the glass and that's it.
A delicious drink that everyone will enjoy.
I want to thank Serena for having me guest post today and I hope that you all get a chance to cool off this Summer and try my tasty Earl Grey Ginger Spritzer for a twist on iced tea.

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Serena and Colt!
What a delicious and refreshing drink! My husband loves Earl Grey tea and I know he will love this (as will I!)
ReplyDeleteEasy and refreshing summer drink!
ReplyDeleteCan I make this ahead of time and pre-mix both the tea and the ginger beer together the night before a party?
ReplyDeleteHi! I wouldn't add the ginger beer until right before serving or you will loose carbonation. Thanks, Serena
