Cutty Sark Smuggler’s Spice
Prohibition era bootlegger Bill McCoy imported Cutty Sark whisky to the people of America. In case of a raid, his speakeasy patrons would keep things hush hush by sipping their hooch out of dainty teacups. 100 years on, we’re serving up mugs of our Smugglers Spice cocktail featuring Tea Leaf Co’s SMUGGLERS SPICE INDIAN CHAI.Â
Ingredients
- 50 ml Cutty Sark Whisky
- 20 ml fresh lemon juice
- 20 ml Tea Leaf Co. Smugglers Spice Chai syrup*
- Small spoon of honey

Instructions
- In one half of the cocktail shaker muddle the pear with honey and lemon.
- Add the whisky and ice and shake.

Notes
To make the syrup: Combine equal parts steeped chai tea and granulated sugar in a pan, and over heat stir until the sugar dissolves. Put in the fridge to chill. Keeps refrigerated for up to 1 month.Â
