Mock Tea Sangria

Ingredients:
One (10 ounce) package frozen raspberries, thawed
3 cups water
1/3 cup Splenda
One family size tea bag
2 cups red grape juice
One lemon, sliced
One lime, sliced
One (16 ounce) bottle orange soft drink, chilled

Directions:
Process raspberries in a blender or food processor until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides.

Pour puree through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a large container, discarding raspberry seeds.

Set puree aside.

Bring three-cups water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan, stirring often. Remove from heat; add tea bag. Cover and steep five minutes.

Remove tea bag with a slotted spoon, squeezing gently; cool tea mixture.

Stir together tea mixture, raspberry puree, grape juice, and lemon and lime slices. Chill.

Stir in orange soft drink, and serve immediately over ice.

Recipe makes 9-cups.
