From Chatelaine magazine. Perfect for a hot summer evening! Could use orange pekoe tea or your favorite tea instead of green tea!

This is excellent! I made some with rum and some without. They were both great. It is so refreshing and flavorful. Thanks for sharing!

This drink is fabulous! So light and refreshing! I used lemonade and did add a little sweetener. I went on the low end of the rum measurement and it was perfect. This beautiful and delicious drink is one I'll make again and again - thanks for sharing! Made for the A Taste Of Yellow - LiveStrong Event, May 2008
