The other day at lunch, a co-worker told a hilarious story of surviving a boring business dinner her husband hosted by conspiring with the waiter. She had him fill her regular-looking iced tea glass with a potent Long Island Iced Tea. I admire her initiative.
Here's another cocktail she could have used to outwit her tablemates. But no reason to hide this one...make up a pitcher and share!
Bourbon-Spiked Iced Tea
Makes one cocktail.
2 ounces bourbon
1/2 ounce Cointreau or triple sec
5 ounces unsweetened iced tea
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon simple syrup
Fill a highball glass with ice. Add the bourbon, Cointreau, iced tea, lemon juice and simple syrup and stir. Garnish with a mint sprig and lemon wedge.
Cheers!
