Sensory Portrait

Crafted by our friends at the National in Athens, GA, the Sensory Portrait is a low calorie, restorative cocktail that contains antioxidants, immune boosting properties, & anti-inflammatory properties, to name a few.  Combining a locally made ginger-infused honey, homemade rooibos tea vodka, tart cherry juice, lemon & Grapefruit-Peach Montane sparkling water, the Sensory Portrait will never make you feel guilty about catching a buzz.

recipe

2 oz Rooibos tea-infused vodka
1 oz tart cherry juice (can be found at most grocery stores)
.75 Bear Hug ginger honey syrup
.5 oz fresh lemon juice

Build in a tin, add ice, top with Grapefruit-Peach Montane Sparkling Water, and roll into a glass.

 

Rooibos Tea Vodka

Pour a 750 ml bottle of vodka into an air tight container (doesn’t have to be anything super nice) and add 10 tsp of loose leaf rooibos tea.  For easy straining, put the tea into a coffee filter and tie up with twine, making a makeshift tea bag.  Let sit for 24 hours and strain.
