- How much juice you need depends on how many bottles you would like to make. For a 1-liter bottle, you will need about 4 oranges, 5 sage leaves and two teaspoons of honey.
- Heat the blood orange juice, honey and the sage leaves in a small pot until it simmers. Strain out the sage leaves, and let the juice cool.
- Fill a 1-liter swing top bottle about halfway with fermented sweet tea from primary fermentation.
- Top off the bottle with blood orange juice so that there is about an inch of headspace left in the bottle.
- Secure the bottle lid and gently invert it a couple times to mix.
- Allow it to ferment at room temperature (70-80 degrees F) for 5 Days.
- Carefully open the lid to see if it is carbonated to your liking. If it is refrigerate, if not continue to ferment for a few more days, then carefully check the carbonation again.
- Keep refrigerated
