The origin of the Margarita recipe is fiercely debated, but we think it’s got Mexico written all over it. With tequila, triple sec and fresh lime it’s tart, zingy and satisfying.

This recipe needs good quality Amalfi lemons, and 95% pure grain alcohol (although you must never drink this neat). The alcohol isn’t easily available in the UK, but it is sold in most grocery stores across Europe and is available from gerrys.uk.com.

Everyone in my family is tea lover! All wants to get up to smell of freshly made spiced black tea (masala chai). After I started working and left home to work in different city, I had to give up morning tea. Actually, I did try making myself a cup of tea for a while.... but slowly... I realized I don't &nbsp;like it. Turned out, more than tea, I was addicted to tea made by Mom :( Well...... I guess... that luxury goes away as you grow up and move on with your life... <img alt="Green Tea and Kumquat Spritzer sweetened with Agave - Vegan | chefdehome.com" src="https://media.chefdehome.com/750/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-5.jpg" loading="lazy" width="750" height="1125" srcset="https://media.chefdehome.com/800/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-5.jpg 800w,https://media.chefdehome.com/655/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-5.jpg 655w,https://media.chefdehome.com/492/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-5.jpg 492w,https://media.chefdehome.com/310/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-5.jpg 310w,https://media.chefdehome.com/100/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-5.jpg 100w,https://media.chefdehome.com/750/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-5.jpg 750w" sizes="(min-width: 992px) 750px, (max-width: 414px) 93vw, 96vw">I still make tea, love hot tea, but drink with only breakfast or in the evening. However, during summers our masala chai changes to cold tea drinks. If you follow my blog, you know I love mixing and infusing fruit flavors into our chai tea during hot summer season. One reason, it is perfect thirst quencher; second reason, fulfill my need of tea for the day, and third; &nbsp;it travels well. Or in other words, can be made in advance. I mean, black tea with milk, if you leave for 15-20 minutes, it turns acidic and changes to a pale dark color. However, &nbsp;chilled tea will taste good even 2-3 hours of steeping!<img alt="Sweet Green Tea and Kumquat Spritzer | chefdehome.com" src="https://media.chefdehome.com/750/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-3.jpg" loading="lazy" width="750" height="1125" srcset="https://media.chefdehome.com/800/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-3.jpg 800w,https://media.chefdehome.com/655/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-3.jpg 655w,https://media.chefdehome.com/492/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-3.jpg 492w,https://media.chefdehome.com/310/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-3.jpg 310w,https://media.chefdehome.com/100/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-3.jpg 100w,https://media.chefdehome.com/750/0/0/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-3.jpg 750w" sizes="(min-width: 992px) 750px, (max-width: 414px) 93vw, 96vw">Thanks to 90+ degree F weather of California, I opened fridge with need of refreshing drink and my eye caught some kumquats. We just bought a packet of green tea to try some refreshing drink this spring-summer season. So, I decided to help myself with a Citrus-y Sweet Green Tea Spritzer! The best part, as I just told you, I made a batch, sipped it while working and kept some for Vishal too!&nbsp;<img alt="Sweet Green Tea and Kumquat Spritzer | chefdehome.com" src="https://media.chefdehome.com/750/0/0/c/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-8.jpg" loading="lazy" width="600" height="1486" srcset="https://media.chefdehome.com/492/0/0/c/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-8.jpg 492w,https://media.chefdehome.com/310/0/0/c/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-8.jpg 310w,https://media.chefdehome.com/100/0/0/c/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-8.jpg 100w,https://media.chefdehome.com/600/0/0/c/green-tea-drink/green-tea-kumquat-spritzer-chefdehome-8.jpg 600w" sizes="(min-width: 992px) 600px, (max-width: 414px) 93vw, 96vw">Spritzers are generally wine based drinks with sparkling water. However, this spritzer is alcohol free yet has beautiful hue of white wine :) A Green Tea Mocktail!! What yaa say? ;)Also, Sweet Green Tea Spritzer is sweetened with agave. You can skip it if your prefer sugar-free. Since drink is made with all natural ingredients, it is vegan, gluten free, and also fit for paleo diet. If you can't find kumquats, use sweet navel orange slices (don't peel) instead.I hope you will enjoy it as much as I loved sipping it all day long!&nbsp;Have a great day!Savita
