Camellia Sinensis Presents the Perfect Cocktail for Summer Happy Hours

Looking for a refreshing drink for your summer happy hours? Camellia Sinensis presents a fun and original drink, Dragon Mojito. This floral, aromatic and refreshing cocktail highlights the jasmine pearls Dragon Pearls, a great classic from Camellia Sinensis.

Ingredients

• 3 oz of Dragon Pearl (Jasmines pearls) chilled (We recommend an 8hrs cold infusion of 2.5g per 250ml water. If you don’t have time a hot infusion cooled on ice also works).
• ¾ oz Thuya Gin (or another “foresty” gin)
• 2 oz white Cranberry juice
• ½ oz lime juice
• Tonic water

Mix all the ingredients except the tonic water. Serve on ice in a 10oz “Highball” glass. Add a little tonic water and stir gently. Garnish with a slice of cucumber and a sprig of basil. 

*For an alcohol-free version simply leave out the gin or, even better, replace it with an alcohol-free gin like Norois Esprit-de-London.

Dragon Pearls are available here.
