I’ve said if before (VOE Imbibery, Spring 2013) and I’ll say it again: this green tea flavored vodka produced by Charbay is one of the most perfect of refreshing spring cocktail ingredients to serve in martinis or highballs at a pool or garden party. Charbay Green Tea Vodka’s main essence is an extraction of rare first-growth green tea from the Anhwei Province in China.
