Blast from the Past- Long Island Tea
We are doing a blast from the past theme day today on b5. When I think of the summers of my childhood I think of lots of longs days with nothing but time, hamburgers done on the grill, and this refreshing tea that a neighbor from New New York always made, Long Island Tea.
Now, when I was growing up and drinking Long Island tea it was NOT the recipes I have seen on the Internet! Nope. It was the most refreshing, nonalcoholic tea I have ever had. In fact, a company in the late 80s created a scent that smelled exactly like it and I wore it for years..it was called Long Island Tea!
Long Island Tea, Non-alcoholic
1 gallon sweet tea
1 can (12 ounces) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
1/2 can frozen orange juice thawed
sliced lemons, bruised mint leaves, and orange slices to float in the tea
Serve in frosted glasses
Makes 12 to 16 servings.

This sounds delicious! The one thing that gets me about the alcoholic version (I had a sip, once) is that it really tastes just like iced tea, but with alcohol. So… why not just drink the non-alcoholic kind? It just doesn’t strike me as an alcoholic drink.
Thanks for the recipe!

One of my favorite drinks to twist is iced tea. Thank you for this recipe! I had an old cookbook with something similar to this, but I can’t find it now!
