How to Make
Steep the Citrus Passion Tea for 7–10 minutes. Strain and chill thoroughly.
Make ginger syrup by stirring equal amounts of sugar and hot water with several slices of fresh ginger. Rest for 10 minutes and strain.
Combine the cold tea, lemon juice and ginger syrup in a cocktail shaker or jar filled with ice.
Shake briefly, then strain into two Collins glasses filled with fresh ice.
Top with sparkling water and garnish with citrus slices, lemon peel and a thin piece of fresh ginger.
Tea Substitution
Use Citrus Punch for a sharper lemon-orange profile or Lemon Ginger Tea for a stronger black-tea and ginger character.
