Bourbon Ice Tea

Bourbon Ice Tea

· 2 cups sweet iced tea

· 6 oz. bourbon

· Lemon slices, preferably Meyer lemons.

· Mint sprigs

Mix all ingredients in a pitcher. Crush a few springs into the mix to release the oils. Pour into an ice-filled glass with additional mint sprigs to garnish. Drink up and pray that the summer heat abates before you do

Dreamsicle

· 1 part whipped cream flavored vodka

· 2 parts orange soda

Pour ingredients into an ice-filled shaker and swirl gently. Strain into a martini glass. You can also pour it all into a highball, ice and all. I prefer to use orange soda over orange juice because I want that sharp fake orange taste that takes me back to childhood, when “artificial” wasn’t a bad word. If you prefer no fizziness, try using Tang™ Orange Drink. It was good enough for astronauts, so it’s good enough for you
