Instructions

Rim the martini glasses by dipping them in sugar placed on a shallow dish, using a wedge of lime to make it stick.

2 ounces green tea, 2 ounces vodka, 1 tablespoon mint syrup, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 ounce lime juice , ice
Strain into the martini glasses. Garnish with lime slices. Cheers!

Notes

1. Stir the honey into the warm green tea or make a honey syrup by mixing it with a tbsp of hot water, or it won't mix with the other ingredients.

2. To clarify: you need two limes. One will be used for the juice, the other should be cut so that you obtain 1 wedge (to rim the glass) and 2 slices (as garnish).
