End of Summer Mocktail: Venezuelan Tizana
Pantry Recipe
End of Summer Mocktail: Venezuelan Tizana
This is the perfect drink for a hot summer day. If you are in the north east, like me you know these days are numbered, the leaves are already falling! It’s inspired by the Venezuelan drink, Tizana, which is made with chopped fruit and grenadine and can be spiked.
This version uses Tadin’s Organic Hibiscus and Green Tea Mango teas instead of the grenadine to give it color and a floral flavor. You can garnish with any fresh seasonal fruit, including fresh berries or melons.
For a sweeter drink, add a drizzle of agave or your favorite simple syrup. If you don't have zero-proof tequila, feel free to skip or add a few dashes of nonalcoholic bitters (my favorite is orange).
Let me know if you try it!
