Lemon First Aid<\/strong> Over ice throw a shot of lemon juice. Same amount of Pacific almond milk and a couple drops of almond exract Stir it up, and add seltzer to taste. \u00a0Sweeten if you like.<\/p>\n
The Placebo<\/strong> In a nice rocks glass, pour over ice 4 parts soda, 1 part lemon juice. Add a dash of orange bitters and cayenne pepper. Garnish with lemon wedge. \u00a0I’d throw some Reed’s ginger beer on this too. Sweeten if you like.<\/p>\n
The KomGetcha<\/strong>\u00a0(just made that up)\u00a0half asian pear ginger kombucha, half seltzer with a splash of lemon juice and a dash of orange bitters.<\/p>\n
The Elder Brewtser<\/strong> (local pilgrim name) In a rocks glass Sparkling water on ice a capful of Elderflower Cordial a couple of drops (hardly any) Orange Blossom water Optional – a shake of Regan’s orange bitters (it has alcohol, so if you’re worried about awakening the beast, skip this ingredient)<\/p>\n
The Terrific Tonic<\/strong> On the rocks – lemon fizzy water, a splash of Jack Rudy elderflower tonic, and a shake of Regan’s orange bitters. Note: Regan’s has ethanol, so if you’re worried about awakening the beast, get Fee Brothers bitters which is AF.<\/p>\n
The<\/strong> Q<\/strong> – My new favorite switchflipper on the rocks
3\/4 seltzer
1\/4 Q\u00a0tonic or Fever Tree lemon tonic
a few drops of juniper berry extract
a dash of orange bitters
Yum!<\/p>\n
\n
3 black tea bags
1 heaping T culinary grade lavender
1 heaping T St John’s Wort or 2 tea bags (it grows like a weed in my garden, so I cut it and dry it and make tea – it’s a natural antidepressant)
In a 2 qt glass pitcher pour boiling water to make tea (I use a big tea ball for the loose st j’s and lavender)
Let it steep for half hour; remove bags, and add\u00a0
1\/4 c lemon juice and 1\/4 c honey. This makes a great iced tea just as it is.<\/p>\n
Over ice, half lemon seltzer and half tea, add a couple dashes of orange bitters.
Yummy and refreshing! \u00a0<\/p>\n
