Some teas do have calming properties and combined with alcohol it would definitely make it easier to talk to a difficult person. So ya in a way this does "work" but its not going to be a switch in reality its more subtle unless you brew the tea with straight moonshine then the person is either dead or very drunk.
I'm literally in awe for 5 minutes after hearing the tea cocktail. i've seen plenty videos of bartender mixing things and i never would thought that adding tea is possible into them.
