WHISKEY PUNCH – GREAT FOR PARTIES

Punch is the perfect delivery method for alcohol when you want to throw a party but not get stuck behind the bar! Punch means you can have a glass of a delicious cocktail in your guests’ hands as they arrive. If you have it cold, then the punch will even out of the course of the party, starting out more potent then allowing the ice to dissolve and dilute it as the party goes on, great to keep festivities on track without overdoing it (too much – ha!)

PUNCH ETIQUETTE

Punch is the perfect crowd-pleaser, but make sure sure you have the right set up. A Punch bowl is obviously ideal but you can use a pot, bundt cake pan, soup tureen or any other container, just make sure it’s the right size for the number of guests. Have a ladle for guests to use. After a while some of the ingredients may settle at the bottom of the punch, so from time to time, use the ladle to stir the punch.



GREEN TEA & IRISH WHISKEY PUNCH

Ingredients
8 cups brewed green tea, 8 cups water, 
5 tea bags
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1 cup ginger ale
1/2 cup honey,
 more if you like it sweeter!1½ cups Jameson Irish WhiskeyMint leaves for garnish

Instructions
Pour the hot water into a heat-proof bowl. Add in 5 green tea bags and let it steep for 10 minutes. Remove the tea bags and add in all of the ingredients. Stir so everything is mixed well and the honey has time to melt. If serving it cold, add in large square ice cubes about 5 minutes before your guests arrive. Also, alter this recipe to your liking! Add more whiskey, lemon, honey, etc. Enjoy!

Orange Brown Sugar Sweet Tea

By
#1: Grab the vegetable peeler and an orange and let’s get started.  Hold the orange firmly in one hand and, with the other hand, cut away the orange peel (the very outer, orange skin of the orange).  If you get a little of the white peel, the pith (remind anyone of Ethel Thayer?) it isn’t a big deal. #2: “Muddling”.  All it means, in this instance, is to mash an orange slice into the tea.  Right before serving the tea, place one half of an orange slice in the bottom of each glass and muddle, or mash, the orange to release the juice and oils.  Since I don’t own a muddler, I use the rounded end of my wooden spoon.  Muddle with slight force; just a couple of pushes and twists should be enough.

EARL GREY TEA LATTE

By
 pic courtesy - COOK NOURISH BLISS INGREDIENTS: 1 earl grey tea bag ¾ cup boiling water ¾ cup milk ½ to 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup, depending on desired sweetness* sprinkle of cinnamon DIRECTIONS: Add the tea bag to a mug and pour in the boiling water. Let steep for about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the tea bag. Meanwhile, add the milk to a small saucepan set over medium heat. Heat until just steaming (do not let the milk boil). Alternatively, you can heat the milk in the microwave. Add the milk to the mug and stir in the vanilla syrup. Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon and enjoy. If desired, you can whisk the steamed milk until very frothy before pouring it into the mug (or use a milk frother). I just prefer these lattes without the foam. *If you do not have vanilla syrup, you can substitute a teaspoon or so of regular granulated sugar and a splash of vanilla extract. Adjust the quantities to your own taste. Source - Cook Nourish Bliss ...

Cinnamon Rose Tea + Honey & Milk

By
Herbal teas are a penchant of mine and this winter I’ve been drinking a lot of this Cinnamon Rose tea, always with a splash of coconut milk and honey! It’s comforting and warming and I especially like a cup at night after the kids have gone to bed. I’ve used ground cinnamon in this recipe as it is easier to use for single servings, but go ahead and use cinnamon sticks, if you like. Especially if you are brewing up a large batch. If you do use the ground cinnamon, you may find it beneficial to strain the tea through a nut milk bag or cloth before drinking to keep the finer granules out. CINNAMON ROSE TEA + HONEY & MILK Serves: one 8 ounce serving INGREDIENTS ¼ teaspoon(heaping) Ground Cinnamon 1 Cardamom Pod, crushe ⅛ teaspoon Vanilla Bean Powder ½ teaspoon Dried Rose Petals, crushed ¼ teaspoon Dried Chamomile Flowers 8 ounces water, heated to steaming 1 teaspoon Raw Honey 2 tablespoons desired Milk(I like a mix of Coconut & Almond) ...
