Gin and tea, an unusual combination?....not even by idea, the two drinks are basic ingredients in the recipes of various cocktails, fresh summery, fruity and thirst-quenching. Just think that a few years ago this combination had become a real trend in the mixology field. Let's see some examples together, to ask your barman or to try at home to offer something different to your guests.

Since the heat is starting to make itself felt these days... you could try tasting a nice "anti-heat" cocktail made with gin and green or black, like those offered on ilgin.it, the thematic portal dedicated to lovers and enthusiasts of gin.

Alternatively, you could try preparing a Royal Tea cocktail based on MLondon Dry Gin and Earl Gray Tea, following the recipe proposed on Thespruceeats.com

At the beginning we only mentioned green tea and tea black but, in reality, white tea and rooibos are also good for this combination.
For example, try the cocktail with Apple and Rooibos proposed in the official Elephant Gin recipe book ,or you could try a White tea Fizz, like the one proposed for a moment of relaxation and well-being by the Karmameju Skin care magazine.


Gin is just one of the possible alcohols that go well with the delicate taste of tea, mixology experts love to experiment and create cocktails with a new and balanced taste using tea, spices or fruit. Some time ago we had already dedicated a post to the topic where you will find tea-based non-alcoholic cocktails and mocktails.
