Don’t know about you but where I am it’s been a pretty mild summer.  But the heat is coming soon, so here’s an adult summer slush drink for the hot days to come.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 7 cups water
  • loose leaf tea
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can frozen lemonade concentrate
  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can frozen orange juice concentrate
  • 2 cups gin

Directions

  1. Put 7 cups water in large saucepan, and heat on high until boiling. Add sugar and stir until dissolved; set aside to cool. Place tea in 2 cups boiling water, and let steep until desired strength is acquired.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together sugar water, tea, lemonade concentrate and orange juice concentrate. Stir in gin. Place in freezer container and freeze overnight.
  3. To serve, Place several scoops into a tall glass, and fill with any clear carbonated beverage.

If you’re trying to cut back on caffeine use loose decaf tea. Serving a non-alcoholic crowd, try it with a fruit juice such as apple or guava juice.
