Keeping it simple with the "Tropical Teaball" for Mocktail Monday

With the summer sun in full effect, it's time we switch to longer drinks for the season. Highballs are perfect for this time of year and make a great base for a mocktail. They’re also super simple and quick to throw together when you want something fun and refreshing without a lot of effort.

Recipe: Tropical Teaball (A black tea highball)

Ingredients:

• 2 oz concentrated black tea, cooled

• 4-8 dashes N/A tropical/passionfruit bitters (I go heavy because I like the bitters, but that may be a little heavy for most, so maybe start with 4)

• ~4 oz soda water

Build:

1. Add tea, bitters, and soda water to a highball glass with ice. Stir with a bar spoon to chill and combine.

2. Garnish with mint or a lime wheel if you wish. Or don’t, like I did, since it was way later than I planned for it to be.

3. Serve and enjoy!
