Bookstore Tea...

The following recipe comes from the cookbook Food to Die For: A Book of Funeral Food,
Tips and Tales (2004, Old City Cemetery/Southern Memorial
Association, Lynchburg, VA) in 2004.

Bookstore Tea
Gary Fox made the following punch for parties at The Bookstore in
Lynchburg during the 10 years of the store's existence. People who taste
this tea always want the recipe-

1 Quart of strong-brewed tea
1.5 cups of sugar
1 quart of orange juice
1 cup of lemon juice
1 quart of ginger ale

Dissolve sugar in the hot tea. Add the remaining ingredients. If making
ahead, add the ginger ale just before serving. Serves 24.

I'm a tea lover and a bit of a tea totaler, as it were, so this sounds great...but one could add something of the CH3CH2OHish nature.

Thanks to Forrest Proper of Joslin Hall fame, for the recipe.
