Jasmine Crush

by Jason Xie

Ingredients

  • ¾ oz. Green Tea
  • 25 oz. Cold Brew Vodka (a standard 750 ml bottle)
  • 6 oz. Apple Liqueur
  • 6 oz. Grape Syrup (a blend of fresh grape juice and sugar 1:1)
  • 9 ½ oz. Fresh Lime Juice
  • 19 oz. Milk

Preparation

  1. To make the Jasmine Crush, start by combining green tea with cold brew vodka and let it infuse for 3 hours to develop a light jasmine flavor.
  2. Once infused, add apple liqueur, grape syrup, lime juice, and milk to the mixture, stirring gently to combine.
  3. Place the mixture in the fridge for 30 minutes to allow the milk to begin separating.
  4. Then, strain the mixture through a fine filter or cheesecloth to clarify, leaving you with a smooth, milk-washed base that highlights the jasmine notes.
  5. Pour 3 ½ ounces of the clarified liquid into a shaker with ice, shake well, and strain into a chilled coupe glass.
