T2 Marmalade Melbourne Mule
Ingredients:
2 tsp soft brown sugar
1 tsp orange marmalade
4 tsp or 4 teabags T2 Melbourne Breakfast Tea
150 mL boiling water
30 mL good quality Scotch Whisky
Ice
Soda water
Slice of rind from an orange
Pinch of nutmeg
Directions:
In a heatproof jug, add the brown sugar, marmalade and Melbourne Breakfast. Add boiling water to the mixture and steep for 3 to 4 minutes.
While the mixture is steeping, fill a highball glass with ice and add Scotch Whisky (Scotch is recommended for this as it has more peaty, deep flavours than Irish Whisky).
Using a fine sieve, strain the tea mixture into your highball glass until it’s just over half full. Top with soda water, a twist of orange peel and a sprinkle of nutmeg.
