June 10th is
NATIONAL ICED TEA DAY
and no one said you couldn't add a little spirit!
It's a perfect time of year for iced tea. It's summer, it's hot and iced tea is refreshing on a sultry day. You just want to sit out on the porch in a rocking chair with a tall glass while you contemplate the birds and the bees.
But maybe not this particular recipe for "iced tea".
It does taste like iced tea and therein lies the danger. It tastes like iced tea, it looks like iced tea, but you are swilling down a big honking glass of almost pure booze.
Very sneaky and very dangerous and a cocktail to be very cautious with, but as long as you stay safely on your porch just contemplating the birds and bees you might be safe.
