Method

Pour the tequila, rum, Cointreau, sugar syrup, lemon juice, orange juice and tea into a cocktail shaker, add a handful of ice cubes and shake vigorously. Fill a sling glass with fresh ice cubes and strain the drink over them. Decorate with orange and lemon slices and a mint sprig.

Tip:- One of the best teas to use as a base for this refreshing drink is a mixed berry tea. Its essential fruitiness blends very well with the citrus juices in Texas Tea.
