Kentucky Tea

Kentucky Tea blends two of the most quintessential southern libations, bourbon and iced tea, to make a cocktail that is sinfully delicious. It tastes like Sunday afternoon, but will make you feel like Saturday night! By the glass or pitcher, it's the perfect summertime cocktail.

Ingredients:

• 2 oz Kentucky Bourbon

• 4 oz Peach Tea

• 1 oz Simple Syrup

• Lemonade ice cubes (or 2 oz lemonade)

• Regular ice cubes (optional)

• Lemon slices (optional)

* To make a pitcher, use 4 cups peach tea, 2 cups bourbon and 1/2 cup of sugar. Stir the sugar into the tea while it's still warm, then add bourbon. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. Add lemonade cubes when serving.

Directions:

3. Add lemonade cubes and stir a few times to get the lemonade flavor mixed in.

4. Garnish with lemon slices or mint leaves.

5. Add regular ice cubes as needed to keep the drink cold.

* Turn this into a slush! Just add the ingredients to a blender or Ninja and blend 'til it reaches slushy consistency.
