Spiced Yuzu

Great atumn beverage. It's served hot so it's great for cold evening. Recipe is built on classic hot toddy concept but instead of using plain water we use black tea, to get the drink more sturdiness and complexity. Optionally you can add any citrus fruit in to the mixture or as garnish, however as we are using Yuzu as base it's not really required.

 2 tsp Yuzu
water
 200 ml Black Tea
spices
 3 Cloves
 1 Cinnamon Stick
 1 Star Anise
 3 cubeb peppercorns
optional
