Mint-Day 2

Day #2 Mint Tea Punch

3 cups boiling water
12 sprigs fresh mint
4 tea bags
1 cup white sugar
1 cup orange juice
1/4 cup lemon juice
5 cups cold water
3 orange slices for garnish (optional)
3 lemon slices for garnish (optional

Place the tea bags and mint sprigs into a large pitcher.
Pour boiling water over them, and allow to steep for about 8 minutes.
Remove and discard the tea bags and mint leaves, squeezing out excess liquid. Stir in sugar until dissolved, then stir in the orange juice and lemon juice. Pour in the cold water.
Serve over ice cubes, garnished with orange or lemon slices


This was really delicious and I plan to make it often during the summer!!
