CC Sweet Tea

Ingredients
1 oz. CC
Sweet tea

Directions  
Crown a glass. Add whisky. The easy way of finishing this recipe is with a can of iced tea from the convenience store. The slightly more difficult way is to make a pitcher of sweet tea, a traditional and superior Southern recipe. A note: the tea bags they’re talking about are just black tea, but any good tea shop has teas specially designed for cold applications.
