A light and delicate gin punch that will be perfect for your next group gathering!
Difficulty: Easy
In a large pot, steep your chosen tea leaves with the sugar, and allow to cool
In a pitcher filled with ice, combine the gin, vermouth, cranberry juice, steeped cooled tea, bitters, and any juice from the melon while slicing and stir
Strain the cocktail into an empty punch and making sure to add the lemon wheels, blackberries and melon to the beverage and give it a quick stir
Place a large ice cube in the individual glassware and ladle the cocktail into each glass as needed.
**You have a bit of flexibility with your choice in tea. You can find a melon tea, to really highlight the melon if you're a fan. You can also use a jasmine tea, or chamomile. David's tea also as an organic kashmiri chai that is a light chai with green tea and cardamom which I think will work PERFECTLY with the cocktail. Just remember to keep away from the oolong's and earl greys, as they will overwhelm the flavours.
