MRS. SWINDELL'S FAMOUS FRUITED ICED TEA

"At one time, I intended to teach law, so I went to Boston to get a Master's of Law degree; while there I lived with the Swindells family. Mrs. Swindells made a superb iced tea with a pronounced citrusy flavor. She insisted on using bottle spring water for a clear tasting iced tea, the sweetest and most flavored oranges and English Breakfast Tea."

1/2 cup sugar, granulated
1/2 cup bottled spring water
6 English breakfast tea bags
4 cups -boiling water
1 1/2 cups orange juice (fresh squeezed from Valencia oranges)
3/4 cup pineapple juice

In saucepan, combine sugar and spring water and bring to a boil; continue to boil until liquid is clear, about 5 minutes. Chill thoroughly.

Place tea bags in heat-resistant pitcher, add boiling water and let steep for about 5 minutes. Remove and discard tea bags. Let cool and refrigerate until chilled.

Add orange juice, lemon juice and pineapple juice and chilled sugar syrup. Refrigerate for a few hours, preferably overnight.

Serve over ice in tall glasses.

Makes 6-8 servings
