This sounds delicious and just the thing for on a hot day.


Orange Mint Tea


* 4 family sized tea bags
* 6 cups boiling water
* 30 mint leaves
* 8 cups cold water
* 2 cups pulp free orange juice
* 1 cup lemon juice (about 6 lemons)
* 2 cups sugar



Steep tea bags and mint in 6 cups of boiling water. Let this brew for about 30 minutes.

When sufficiently brewed, removed the teabags and strain the liquid into a large pitcher.

Stir in the sugar until it dissolves.

Now add 8 cups of cold water, orange juice and lemon juice.

Serve over ice with sprigs of mint and lemon wedges as a garnish.

For us as well, but I only made a small amount, about one third. My sis-in-law was here, and all three of us liked it, in spite of the fact that I didn't have any really cold water. Must get some ice made. Oh, and I didn't use as much sugar.
