- 8 ounces water heated to 205 F
- 2 teaspoons of honey
- 3 ounces Bourbon of your choice (we used Old Forrester)
- 2 lemon wedges
You'll Also Need:
- 2 mugs
- A tea infuser
- A spoon for stirring
Instructions:
- Infuse the Red Rooibos tea leaves in the hot water for 5 minutes using your preferred way of steeping loose leaf tea (we recommend a Simple Brew Teapot or Folding Handle Infuser).
- While the tea is steeping, add 1 teaspoon of honey and 1.5 ounces of Bourbon (1 shot) to each mug.
- Once the Red Rooibos is done infusing, strain half a cup (4 ounces) of the infusion into each tea mug.
- Squeeze a lemon wedge into each mug and stir everything together until the honey is combined. Feel free to add more honey or lemon to taste.
- Cheers!
