Recipe: Foggy Barley, Try 1

I have been thinking about making some tea-based cocktails, and since my car got towed today (!!) what better time to bust out my shaker and alcohol, right?

I made a pot of barley tea earlier today, so I decided to try and make something out of it.
Here's my first try at fortified barley tea :)

3/4 oz Rum
3/4 oz Triple Sec
Dash of Lime juice
Splash of THICK barley tea


This turned out pretty refreshing, although the barley flavor is not strong enough. It reminds me of apple cider somewhat. I think the triple sec+lime juice is overpowering the barley. I will try it with less acidic stuff next time.
