Tr eva’s $30 Rooibos Cocktail
In a vacuum coffee maker, heat up 8 oz. Hendricks Gin, 2 oz. CÎROC Red Berry Vodka
and 1.5 oz. simple syrup in the bottom chamber. In the top chamber, place the following
ingredients: dried lavender, mint, sliced almonds, peppercorns, cardamom, vanilla,
cinnamon sticks, Blueberry Rooibos Tea, and citrus (lemon and orange peel).
As the gin and vodka heat they will rise into the top portion of the coffee maker, infusing
with all the ingredients. Stir and remove heat. As the heat is removed the alcohol will
start to vacuum back down into the bottom chamber and that is what is served to the
customer.
