| | Orange and Lime Ice Tea
1 1/4 cups of water
2 tea bags
scant 1/2 cup of orange juice
4 tablespoons of lime juice
1-2 tablespoons of brown sugar
8 ice cubes
sugar, to taste
wedge of lime
slices of fresh orange, lemon, or lime, to garnish
Pour the water into a pan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat, add the tea bags, and let infuse for 5 minutes. Remove the tea bags and let tea cool to room temperature (about 30 minutes). Transfer to a pitcher, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 45 minutes. When the tea has chilled, pour in the orange juice and lime juice. Add sugar to taste. Take 2 glasses and rub the rims with a wedge of lime, then dip them into sugar to frost. Put the ice cubes into the glasses and pour the tea into the glasses. Garnish the rims with slices of fresh orange, lemon, or lime. Serves 2.
