If you're starting 2024 with 'Dry January,' this blog post is for you! This week we've curated a few quick recipes for tea-infused non-alcoholic cocktails, perfect for that end-of-the-day treat.
Tart & Floral
If hibiscus tea is your jam, then this is the mocktail for you! Our take on a non-alcoholic hibiscus margarita is sure to impress with its flowery undertones.
Ingredients for Hibiscus Tea:
3 cups of Water
3/4 cup of dried Hibiscus
1/8 cup of Sugar
Ingredients for Hibiscus Mocktail:
Ice (5 - 6 cubes)
1 cup Hibiscus Tea
1 Tbsp of Agave Necture
1 Lime
Directions:
Firstly, create your hibiscus tea mixture by bringing 3 cups of water to a boil. Once a roiling boil is achieved, remove from heat and add in your dried hibiscus flowers. Let this steep for 20 minutes.
Pour your tea into a glass jar while removing the hibiscus flowers with a mesh strainer. Then stir in your sugar.
Once your tea has cooled to room temperature, blend the tea, ice cubes, agave nectar, and the juice of one lime in a food processor or blender.
Pour and enjoy!
Mock Appletini
A refreshing, crisp, non-alcoholic appletini can be enjoyed any time of the day. This recipe works best when using our very own Apple Chai black tea. This blend of Assam black tea with apple, cinnamon, and green cardamom is great to enjoy in the morning or afternoon. It has a rich malty taste, rounded out by sweet notes of warming cinnamon.
Apple Chai Brewing Guide:
Steep 1 tsp. of Apple Chai black tea blend in 8 oz of hot water for 3 to 5 minutes, or until desired strength. Set aside to cool to room temperature.

1 Tbsp of Lemon Juice
1 Sliced Apple (of choice) to garnish

Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker.
Vigorously shake until the shaker begins to feel cold.
Strain into a chilled glass, garnish with an apple slice, and enjoy!
