Hi Simon, is it tonic as in the ingredients, or soda as in the instructions?

Hi Ian, thanks for spotting this. It should be tonic water and Simon has now corrected the method.

Up the tea measure equal to the gin and reduce the elderflower to 20 ml and then it's getting somewhere. St. Germain demands so much attention.

This sounds like a good steer - I'll be upping the tea and easing back on the elderflower next time. Maybe it's down to how much the drinker is a tea lover!

Delicious. As it says on the tin - dry and floral, long and refreshing. I used my home-made tonic syrup and shook with everything, and then topped with a couple oz of soda.

Perfectly refreshing. The cold tea adds a light falvour which is nicely offset by the Elderflower. Used a locally made San Diego gin which has aromatics from the area. It has a nice strong flavour which held up with all the other ingredients.

This is almost exactly the same (1/2 oz of St. Germain difference) to the S. Tea G. I was thinking of this to celebrate the Boston Tea Party...

Well spotted Richard. From when I launched St-Germain liqueur and created loads of recipes. I've added links between the two cocktails.
