Grapefruit Tea Bitters


Grapefruit Tea Bitters

1 cup boiling water
Two bags tea (I used Irish Breakfast tea)
1/2 red grapefruit, sliced thickly
1/2 cup Bacardi 151

Steep tea in boiling water for five minutes. Remove and discard teabags. Reduce tea to 1/2 cup over medium-high heat. Combine tea, grapefruit and rum and seal in a jar. Infuse for two days. Remove and discard grapefruit, then strain.
