Dotti, I tried to PM you, but your box is full!

I think last summer, you posted a drink recipe on the "drinking thread" for a "Long Island Iced Tea" type of drink. Now, I can't find it, can you repost or PM it to me?

I am having an "end of chemo" party for a dear friend tomorrow, and thought it would make a fine addition to the party!

Thanks!
(and, if it wasn't YOU who posted it, maybe whoever did will send it along...)

    Okay, this drink was a BIG hit. A little sweet for me, and since I was hosting and running around, I only drank two of them.

    BUT

    Everyone else went through 1.5 gallons!
    Damn! We nurses can DRINK!

    Thanks again for the recipe, Dotti...it's a keeper!

    So glad you gals enjoyed it! If you want it less sweet, just cut down on the amount of sugar you add. Some orange juice is sweeter than others.
    Thanks for letting me know the others enjoyed it!
    When I working clinical, we'd have 3:30 "rounds" at a local bar. I know what you mean. That was in the days before have designated drivers. Oh, man, and I was an ER nurse. Lord help me, I drove home.
