Friday Cocktail - Connie's Summer Slush

Drink Recipe - Connie's Summer Slush
I think I made this or something very similar a couple of summers ago for a tubing trip down the bouge chitto river. I'm sure I used bourbon as the base liquor though.


  • 1 cup Brandy or Vodka
  • 9 cups Water
  • 4 Liptons Tea Bags
  • 2 cups Sugar
  • 1 can Frozen Orange Juice (thawed)
  • 1 can Frozen Lemonade (thawed)
  • 12 cans 7up

Boil tea bags with two cups of the water. Set aside and let cool. Boil the remaining 7 cups of water with 2 cups of sugar. Bring to boil and remove from heat. Set aside and let cool to room temperature. Once sugar mixture is cool add the Orange Juice and the Lemonade. Add water from the tea and squeeze tea bags. Add Vodka or Gin. Stir together and Freeze over night. Serve in a highball and top with about 2 oz. of 7up.

You can also freeze it without the liquor and add it yourself along with the 7up.
