I personally really like making green tea martinis with Zen (called a Zentini). You can definitely taste the green tea.

Answer 3

They actually make a green tea alcoholic drink already bottled now....It is made by the same people who make Smirnoff, and is in a bottle similar to that one.
We purchased it at Walmart, and it was very good!
No carbonation, and awesome flavor,
check it out!

Answer 4

In order to make alcohol you need sugar and yeast to be present. Tea has neither. You'd be better off adding tea to vodka or everclear if your really want tea flavored alcoholic beverage.

Answer 5

there's a drink called kombucha. it is fermented tea drink, tastes like apple juice. the alcohol content is low, but i guess you can increase it by doing the fermentation anaerobically (in a closed container)..
