Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 7 cups Water
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 4 pieces Black tea bags
- 12 ounces Orange juice concentrate (frozen and undiluted)
- 12 ounces Lemonade concentrate (frozen and undiluted)
- 2 cups Whiskey
- optional Ice cubes or crushed ice (for serving)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a simmer over medium heat.
Add the 4 black tea bags to the hot water and steep for 5 minutes, then remove the tea bags and discard them.
Stir in the granulated sugar into the hot tea until fully dissolved. Set the mixture aside to cool to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl or pot, combine the remaining 5 cups of water, the orange juice concentrate, the lemonade concentrate, and the cooled sweetened tea. Mix well to combine.
Stir in the whiskey until everything is thoroughly incorporated.
Pour the mixture into a large, freezer-safe container with a tight-fitting lid. Place it in the freezer and let it freeze for at least 8 hours or overnight. The mixture will not freeze solid due to the alcohol, but it will develop a slushy texture.
To serve, use a spoon or scoop to scrape out portions of the whiskey slush into individual glasses.
Optional: Serve with additional ice cubes or crushed ice for extra chill, and garnish with a slice of orange or lemon if desired.
