Ingredients




1 ounce of fruity tea steeped vodka (I use 1 cup of vodka to 3 tbsp of David's Tea Pink Flamingo tea, steeped for at least 45 minutes)
1 ounce simple syrup (1:1 ratio of water & sugar, heated until sugar is fully melted)
1/2 ounce limoncello
juice of half a lemon
ice
cocktail shaker

Preparation

1 Fill your shaker with ice. 2 Add all of your ingredients. 3 Shake. 4 Shake. 5 Shake. 6 Strain. 7 Drink. 8 Garnish with a thin slice of lemon, if you like. 9 For a slight variation on this drink, omit the simple syrup and add 1 ounce of hibiscus syrup instead.  The hibiscus makes it a deeper shade of pink and adds some sweetness and a slight floral note.
