Why Use Tea in Cocktails?
Tea-based cocktails aren’t just trendy—they’re an incredibly flavorful way to add depth and complexity to your drinks. Whether you're using fruity, floral, earthy, or spiced teas, they provide natural flavors that enhance classic cocktails. Plus, tea has antioxidants and botanical benefits, so you can sip guilt-free while enjoying a refreshing summer moment.
And with the Bruetta tumbler, you can steep, strain, and shake your drinks—all in one cup!
How to Use Your Bruetta Tumbler as a Cocktail Infuser
The magic is in the patent-approved filter lid! Here’s how it works:
-
Steep Your Base: Brew your favorite Bruetta loose leaf tea directly in your tumbler. Let it cool for a smooth, flavorful cocktail base.
-
Infuse Your Ingredients: Add fresh fruits, herbs, or botanicals directly into the tumbler—think mint, berries, citrus slices, or even lavender.
-
Shake It Up: Pour in your spirits, juices, and a little ice. Pop the lid on and give it a good shake! The built-in filter strains unwanted chunks out of your glass.
-
Sip & Enjoy! Pour over ice or enjoy straight from the tumbler.
