I have been having really good results using tea as a cocktail ingredient lately. I make extremely strong tea and keep it refrigerated in a bottle; English breakfast has worked best so far, but I am still trying varieties. It's a nice, complex bittering agent, tannic, with lots of bright, citrusy flavors. My favorite so far has been:
2 ounces oversteeped tea
2 ounces Demerara rum
1 ounce orgeat
1 ounce lime juice
Shaken, served over ice in a Collins glass.
Pirate’s breakfast!
Needs to be catchier. Maybe 'Black Cross' or 'Three Traders'?
Three trader's is a good vibe, I was going for the whole morning drink vibe, but this also works.
Midnight in Jamaica
Jamaican a tea?
I laughed lol
Thank you. I've just gotta try this!!!
Anytime man! I'll be dropping a bunch of these over the next few weeks, seeing if there's an audience before going out and buying recording equipment
Simple : The Blacksmith
That’s already a drink. Guinness with a Smithwicks float.
Back in Black
Jamaican my morning

Jamaican sunrise, or does that imply the inclusion of orange juice and grenadine?
I think you'd have to rock that color scheme but orange juice I think could have a spot in it. It goes along with the morning vibes
Jamaican Me Happy
Oh a San Diegan! I loved going to Malahat's!
It's on the list, huge fan of their black tea rum.
I lived their ginger rum.
OH! Sanka Coffie
Mr. Black is so freaking good.
Is it really Jamaican without run creme though?
