Not Your Grandma’s Sweet Tea.

This tea-based vodka gets an extra hint of sweetness with help from the highly enjoyable but equally stubborn pomegranate. Don’t fret. Pomegranate-flavored tea bags are widely available and so much easier to wield.

PREPARATION:

First, make sure you have all the needed ingredients: 8 bags pomegranate green tea, 6 oz. Everclear®, and 7 oz. filtered water.

Combine EVERCLEAR, water and tea bags in a quart-sized, sealable container and let steep for 2 hours, or to taste.

Once steeped, remove tea bags.
