Posted by Phuong on Feb 14th, 2010

I was sitting here thinking of a fun and healthy way to spice up Valentine's Day and tea and vodka came to mind! This delicious green marTEAni is sure to start the night off right.

  • 1/4 ounce strawberry liqueur
  • 1/4 ounce passion fruit juice
  • 2 ounces vodka


    Directions:

    1. Rim a martini glass with sugar.

    3. Pour into a martini glass.
    4. Garnish rim with a strawberry.


    Koni Love Fortune Cookies





    Ingredients:

  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 8 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 8 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 3 teaspoons Koni Chocolate Strawberry Delight tea brewed*


    Directions:

    * Use 2 tsp of Chocolate Strawberry Delight Rooibos Tea for 1/2 C of water and brew for 3 minutes. This will create a strong and intense flavored tea. Take 3 tsp for the recipe.

    1. Write fortunes on pieces of paper that are 3 inches x .5 inch. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Grease 2 baking sheets.
    2. Create a 3-inch round stencil out out of a plastic can lid.
    3. In a bowl, lightly beat the egg white, vanilla extract, almond extract and vegetable oil until frothy.
    4. Sift the flour, cornstarch, salt and sugar into a separate bowl. Stir the tea into the flour mixture.
    5. Add the flour into the egg white mixture and stir until you have a smooth batter. The batter should not be runny, but should drop easily off a wooden spoon.
    • You can also dye the cookies at this point with food coloring.

    6. With a small offset spatula, spread batter through the stencil so it is a circle onto a silpat or parchment paper, about 6 per cookie sheet.
    7. Bake until the outer 1/2-inch of each cookie turns golden brown and they are easy to remove from the baking sheet with a spatula (14 - 15 minutes).
    8. Working quickly, remove the cookie with a spatula and flip it over in your hand. Place a fortune in the middle of a cookie. To form the fortune cookie shape, fold the cookie in half, then gently pull the edges downward over the rim of a glass, wooden spoon or the edge of a muffin tin until the ends meet. Place the finished cookie in the cup of the muffin tin so that it keeps its shape.
