1 1/2 gallon strong tea
juice from 1 1/2 dozen oranges
juice from 1 1/2 dozen lemons

Minted Vodka Lemonade

CAUTION - these drinks are extremely drinkable. Do not have more than two, or that fruitcake recipe will make perfect sense to you!

1 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice (6-8 lemons)
1/2 cup vodka
1 cup (packed) fresh mint, chopped
2/3 cup sugar

Mix mint and sugar together with a wooden spoon. Add lemon juice and vodka, chill for two hours. Strain. Fill six glasses with crushed ice and lemonade, add fresh mint sprigs as garnish.

Champagne Punch

Use a large punch bowl with an ice ring.

Pour 2 bottles of champagne and 1 quart of soda water into a bowl. Add 1 cup of peach brandy. If a more distinct peach flavor is desired, add frozen peaches.

Replenish with champagne, soda, and brandy as needed.

Pisco Sour

A family favorite from the years spent in Chile. Pisco is a distilled liquor (brandy) produced in the wine growing regions of Chile and Peru. If your local liquor store doesn't carry Pisco, a specialty store usually will.

2 oz. Pisco
2 tbsp sugar (superfine works best)
1/2 egg white

2 oz lime juice


Shake with ice pour into sugar rimmed glass add dash of angostura bitters.
