Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Gin
• 1 can (12 oz) Lemonade concentrate (frozen)
• 1 can (12 oz) Limeade concentrate (frozen)
• 2 cups Green tea
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 6 cups Water
• 2 cups Lemon-lime soda (e.g., Sprite or 7Up)
• 4 cups (optional for blending) Ice

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a gentle simmer. Steep 2 green tea bags for 3-5 minutes, then remove the tea bags and let the tea cool to room temperature.

Step 2

While the tea cools, dissolve the granulated sugar in the remaining 4 cups of water. Stir until fully dissolved, then set aside to cool.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gin, lemonade concentrate, limeade concentrate, brewed green tea, and the cooled sugar-water mixture. Stir well to incorporate all the ingredients evenly.

Step 4

Transfer the mixture into a large freezer-safe container and freeze for a minimum of 8 hours or overnight. The mixture will not completely solidify due to the alcohol content, creating a slushy texture.

Step 5

Once frozen, use a spoon or ice cream scoop to scrape and serve the slush into individual glasses.

Step 6

Top each serving with a splash of lemon-lime soda to add a fizzy finish. For extra flair, serve with a slice of lemon or lime as garnish.

Step 7

Optionally, for an ultra-smooth texture, blend the frozen slush with additional ice before serving.
