I've become fond of tea-based punch, and this one sounds wonderful with or without the vodka! Hubby says rum. Why not? :) I'll be trying this when I'm spring cleaning. (Minus the vodka? LOL!) From Fine Cooking magazine. Ingredients:
3 ounces fresh spearmint (2 bunches) |
2 large cold brew tea bags, such as lipton (for iced tea) |
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar |
1 cup fresh lemon juice (from 4 to 6 medium lemons) |
1 cup fresh orange juice (from about 4 medium oranges) |
1 cup vodka (optional) |
lemon slice, and |
orange slice (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Put the mint in a large heatproof pitcher and pour in 6 cups boiling water. Add the tea bags and let steep for 30 minutes. Remove the tea bags, strain out the mint, and stir in the sugar and juices.
2. Let cool to room temperature and add the vodka (if using). Refrigerate until cold. Stir before serving. Serve over ice, garnished with the sliced lemon.
