To make it, just add a mint simple syrup, fresh lemon juice, strong iced tea and lots of bourbon to a big jar, shake and chill.

Ingredients
Directions
- Combine the sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat and add the mint and lemon zest. Transfer the syrup to a liquid measuring cup or bowl, cover and refrigerate until very cold, at least 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, bring 3 cups water to a boil in a saucepan. Add the tea bags, remove from the heat and let steep 10 minutes. Discard the bags, then pour the tea into a 64-ounce jar and refrigerate until very cold, at least 2 hours.
- Strain the syrup into the jar. Add the lemon juice, bourbon and bitters, if using. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- To serve, pour into glasses filled with crushed ice and garnish with lemon slices and mint sprigs.
