- 4 chamomile tea bags
- Zest of 2 tangerines, white pith removed
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed tangerine juice
- 4 ounces Chamomile-Tangerine Syrup
- 3 ounces white balsamic vinegar
- 4 ounces London Dry Gin, such as Tanqueray
- 5 ounces chilled dry sparkling wine, such as Cava
- Combine sugar and water in a medium sauce pan and bring to a light simmer over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Remove from heat and add tea bags, tangerine juice, and zests. Steep for 6 minutes, then discard tea bags. Cover and let stand an additional 30 minutes. Strain zest and keep syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 1 month.
- Combine syrup, white balsamic, and gin in a swing-top bottle. Gently swirl to blend. Refrigerate until ready to use. Base will keep up to 4 days refrigerated.
