WHISKEY AND JASMINE GREEN TEA CHILLERS

Steps:

• Bring 4 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the sugar, and stir until it has dissolved. Let cool for 2 minutes. Add the tea bags, stir and let steep for 3 minutes. Remove the tea bags, and squeeze the liquid back into the pot. Transfer the tea to a container, and refrigerate until cool, about 10 minutes.
• Fill 4 highball glasses, Collins glasses or 12-ounce mason jars with ice. Add 2 to 3 ounces of the whiskey and 8 ounces of the tea to each. Garnish with lemon slices and dried jasmine flowers if using.

• Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan; remove from the heat, add tea bags, and let steep 5 minutes. Remove tea bags and stir in sugar until dissolved. Transfer to a pitcher, add peach nectar, and stir to combine. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
• Fill tall glasses with ice and then pour peach tea over, leaving some room at the top for the whiskey. Stir in 1 shot of whiskey to each glass and garnish with a peach slice and fresh mint sprig.

BARM BRACK (IRISH WHISKEY TEA LOAF)

Steps:

• First soak the raisins and sugar in the tea (or tea and whiskey) overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Add Flour, baking powder, and eggs to the tea mixture.
• Spoon the dough into a greased loaf pans. You should be able to fill 3 loaf pans, 8x4 inches (20x10 cm). (I prefer to make them in ready to give away little loaf pans which makes about five per batch).
• Place loaf pans in the oven and bake for 1 hour and 45minutes.
• Leave Bram Brack to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a cooling rack and glaze the top with the melted honey. ( If you go with the small give away kind let cool then leave in tin drizzle honey on the top and cover with a little room on top and then give them away when ready.).
