Can't make it to the Hendrick's Gin "Voyage Into the Unusual" party in San Francisco this week? Hendrick's still has you covered — try the seasonal punch made for the Houston kick-off of the event, perfect for lazy summer nights outdoors.

INGREDIENTS

5 parts Hendrick's Gin
3 parts fresh lemon juice
2 parts peach liqueur
2 parts Demerara sugar
8 lemons
5 parts weak Ginger Peach Black Tea
5 parts chilled soda water
1 block ice
Lashings of Fee Bros. Peach Bitters, to taste
mint sprigs and peach halves, for garnish

DIRECTIONS

Prepare the tea, 1 bag per 16 ounces of hot water steeped and chilled until the punch needs to be mixed.
Three hours before service, take the peel of the lemons and muddle them with the Demerara and place them aside. Just before service, add the lemon juice needed to this mixture and stir well until the sugar dissolves. Strain as you pour into the punch bowl.
Combine ingredients aside from soda water in a punch bowl and stir them well.Top with soda, garnish accordingly, and serve.
