One day, I was craving a Long Island Iced Tea, but I didn't have any sweet and sour mix for it. This is what I came up with. I like it even better than the stuff from the store.

Ingredients For sweet & sour cocktail mixer

  • 1/2 c
    spring water
  • 1/2 c
    sugar
  • 1/2 c
    lime juice (fresh squeezed is best)
  • 1/2 c
    lemon juice (fresh squeezed is best)

How To Make sweet & sour cocktail mixer

  • 1
    Add water and sugar to medium saucepan. Stir constantly over medium-high heat until sugar is completely dissolved; remove from heat and allow to cool a bit.
  • 2
    Add lime and lemon juices, stir, then pour into jar/jars. Hint: Pouring from 8 to 10 oz. jars is easier than pouring from the standard pint jar. I like to use my recycled small jelly jars.
  • 3
    Place lids on jars and store in refrigerator.
  • Last Step: Don't forget to share! Make all your friends drool by posting a picture of your finished recipe on your favorite social network. And don't forget to tag Just A Pinch and include #justapinchrecipes so we can see it too!
