Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 ounce sake Junmai type works well, 30 milliliters
  • 1 bag green tea
  • 2 ounces vodka
  • 1 cucumber for garnish, slice

Instructions

  1. Add the tea bag to the sake in a clean glass jar or a cocktail shaker and infuse for one to three hours.
  2. Discard the tea bag and combine the vodka and green tea-infused sake in a cocktail shaker with ice. Stir until chilled, then strain into a coupe or martini glass and garnish with the cucumber.

Notes

  • The green tea can be infused into the sake for one to three hours, depending on your preference for the strength of the green tea flavor in your cocktail.
  • You can infuse more than one ounce for more green tea cocktails. Store the green tea-infused sake in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Tasters preferred the two to one ratio and vodka in this saketini over gin. Please feel free to vary these to your taste. If using gin, I would recommend a cucumber-infused gin like Hendrick's.
