this is the most perfect thing for a picnic ever invented. this is a take on a family friends one but unfortunately i have no idea what she put in it so i had to do it by taste. i always make tonnes of the stuff and freeze it, but most of the time it doesn't last that long! i find that it tastes better the next day, once the mint has infused. so if you want, keep it all separate and put the mint in the tea when you refrigerate it.
ingredients:
150ml of strong, cold tea
400ml lemonade (the clear one not cloudy)
50ml apple juice
a few good handfuls of mint, torn up (you can cut it up neatly but i don't really see the point)
LOTS of ice cubes
method: firstly, you want to make the tea. i use about 3 tea bags. don't cheat by using cold water though, it won't brew properly if you do. put in a small amount of the mint. if you're in a hurry you can cool it quiker by putting lots and lots of ice cubes in it. once its completely cool, put in the lemonade, apple juice, more ice and the rest of the mint. simple. to serve add more ice.
