Food & Wine. They say: To turn the midgame cooler into a postgame cocktail, stir in 5 cups of tequila in place of the water in Step 2 and serve over ice, in salt-rimmed glasses. Wooo Yeah!
Ingredients:
8 cups cold water
2 cups sugar
4 star anise pods, crushed
4 inches fresh ginger, peeled and sliced into thin coins
2 cups loosely packed mint leaves
2 quarts fresh grapefruit juice
1 quart fresh orange juice
1 quart fresh lime juice
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, combine 4 cups of the water with the sugar, star anise, ginger and mint.
2. Bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and let stand for 30 minutes. Strain the syrup and refrigerate.
3. In a very large pitcher or bowl, stir together the grapefruit, orange and lime juices. Stir in the syrup and the remaining 4 cups of water. Serve over ice.
