COCKTAIL
THE SOOTHSAYER

We recently released Botanical Cocktail Kits, which are a wonderful opportunity to use our tea blends in new and exciting ways, and an opportunity for The Urban Cottage to collaborate with a fellow female led business, Botanikos, based in Melbourne, hand making botanically infused simple syrups to elevate your drink making experience.

This is one of the recipes you'll find in the Soothsayer kit.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED//
60ml Gin* 
30 ml Lime juice
30ml Botanikos Lavender simple syrup
½ cup (125ml) Soothsayer tea
Fresh cucumber rounds for garnish
Ice

*We love using Hendrick's Lunar gin for this concoction, but you could use your favourite drop or explore non-alcoholic varieties.

MAKING YOUR COCKTAIL//
Brew one teaspoon of tea per cup in infuser, teapot or plunger.
Pour over 80°C filtered water.
Steep for 5-7 minutes. Strain, then let cool.
Combine all ingredients in a highball glass filled with ice.
Stir and serve garnished with cucumber rounds.
