Here’s how to make the Tea Syrup used in our Cloudy Apple Crush cocktail:
Add to a pan one lemon, sliced, 500g of sugar, 500g of water and 6 bags of English breakfast tea. Bring the water to the boil, ensuring the sugar has fully dissolved. Allow to cool and pass the liquid through a strainer to ensure that no solids remain in the syrup and bottle.
Please note that this can be scaled up or down, keeping all proportions to scale, to suit the requirements of your pub or bar.
The best storage would be in an airtight container, such as a screw topped bottle, and in the fridge when not in use. Storage will affect the shelf life of the syrup, but we advise that the syrup will be good for use for 14 days after making.
