Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Bourbon
- 4 cups Sweetened iced tea
- 1 can (12 ounces) Frozen lemonade concentrate
- 1 can (12 ounces) Frozen orange juice concentrate
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar

In a large mixing bowl, combine the frozen lemonade concentrate, frozen orange juice concentrate, and granulated sugar.
Add 6 cups of water to the bowl and stir until the sugar and concentrates have fully dissolved.
Stir in the bourbon and sweetened iced tea until well mixed.
