Brew a strong batch of Teeccino Almond Amaretto grounds and steep 2 Teeccino Almond Amaretto tea bags in hot water for about 5-10 minutes.
Make the simple syrup by combining all simple syrup ingredients in a small sauce pot and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
Once cooled sufficiently, combine 1 oz of the simple syrup with the remaining ingredients in a cocktail shaker or pitcher and gently swirl/stir; do not shake!
