Ingredients 
                                 
1 cup water
1 cup sugar                                                             
3 fresh mint leaves                                                                                                                                                                                 leaves
1 x 12 oz (355ml) frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
½ x 12 oz (355 ml) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
1 oz (29 ml) rum or sparkling water or soda

 
Method
In a small pot, place the water, sugar and mint leaves over heat.
Give everything a stir and allow it to simmer until the sugar is completely dissolved
Remove from heat and allow to cool. Pluck the mint leaves out and discard.
You’ve just made a simple syrup, the beginning of many great cocktails.
In a freezer proof con­tainer (can be a cake tin or a Tup­per­ware con­tainer) mix together
the two juice con­cen­trates and the sim­ple syrup.
Either place a lid on top or cover with plas­tic wrap. Put it in the freezer for at least 4 hours.
 
Take out your orange mix­ture, which will be start­ing to set. Use a fork to rake the sur­face
and cre­ate some snow-y slush. Spoon 1/3 of a cup of your orange slush into a cock­tail glass.
Top with your shot of rum and then top up with sparkling water or soda.
 Kick back, sip and relax – we know you’ve earned it.
