figured that would get jenjen's attention! :laugh:

I'm ready to pack it in....a girlfriend is having a party tomorrow....I told her I'd take care of the bar....she would like long island ice tea's. I've looked it up and have already come across 4 different recipes.....one calls for sour mix...one calls for sweet and sour mix....one calls for oj...one calls for white creme de menthe?...

I've seen the ready mixes but would prefer not to use that!

any tried and true recipes?

HELP!! :cry:

love all the new smilies!!
