4 ounces tangerine vodka (recommended: Grey Goose)

4 ounces sugar cane juice

1/2 key lime, juiced

Several mint leaves

1/3 cup brown sugar, for rimming glass

Preparation

1. Combine unsweetened tea, vodka, sugar cane juice, lime juice and a few mint leaves with crushed ice in a pitcher.

2. Dip the rims of four glasses into a shallow bowl of water, then press them into the brown sugar.

3. Pour into the glasses and serve.
