From scratch!

Oh and I've made a couple gallons of Tea Punch so far this summer. We tried it in Nashville and I got the recipe.

Makes 1 Gallon

1 generous bunch of mint
1 quart of boiling water
2 large tea bags meant for iced tea such as Tetley
2 cups sugar
juice of 4 lemons
juice of 4 oranges
water to make 1 gallon

Preparation
Place the mint in a large pitcher and pour the boiling water over. Add the tea bags and sugar. Let steep for ten minutes. Remove the mint and the tea bags. Add the juices and water to make 1 gallon. Serve over ice with mint and thin lemon circle for garnish.

I've been making it using the splenda mix (not the pure splenda but the splenda sugar mix) and it's turned out great as well.
