Drinks and Mixology

Explore a collection of tea, mulled drink & mixology recipes from Dawn McNaught, Author, Artist & Food Educator. These recipes are built around simple ingredients, seasonal flavours & the everyday things you may already have in your kitchen.

Tea is at the heart of this collection, but it doesn't stop there. You will find hot & iced tea, fruit-infused teas, coffee drinks, homemade syrups, seasonal beverages, mulled drinks, holiday drinks & simple mixology recipes. Some are designed for a quiet afternoon, while others are made for entertaining, special occasions or gathering around the table.

I enjoy working with Canadian ingredients & familiar flavours, then finding ways to combine them into something a little unexpected. Fresh fruit, herbs, spices, tea, coffee & homemade ingredients can become a simple drink worth slowing down for.

There are recipes for summer afternoons, cool autumn evenings, winter celebrations & everything in between. Some are alcohol-free, some are inspired by classic mixed drinks, & others are simply a good cup of tea made a little differently.

This is a collection that will continue to grow as I develop & test new recipes. My goal is to make drinks approachable, interesting & easy enough to recreate at home.
