This is one of my favorite cocktails to have when it’s chilly outside and you want something warm and soothing to sip on. Often this drink is made with Orange Pekoe tea, but I prefer to use blueberry herbal tea as the flavor in more intense. In a pinch I have used earl grey and it was still pretty tasty. Disaronno Italian Liquor and Triple Sec are my choices to further enhance this cocktail, but you can also use Amaretto, Grand Marnier, Brandy or most any other clear liquor you have on hand.

• Ingredients
• 4 cups cold water
• 2 blueberry tea bags
• 2 ounces Disaronno
• 2 ounces Triple Sec
• 4 orange slices
• 4 cinnamon sticks

Directions:

Boil the water and pour into a large tea pot along with the blueberry tea bags and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Discard tea bags. Place an orange slice and cinnamon stick into each class. Add 1/2 ounce each of Disaronno and Triple Sec into the glass. Pour tea over top and stir with the cinnamon stick to combine all the flavors.
