For a stronger tea flavor, use more tea bags or steep for a longer period. Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. You can also use honey or agave nectar as a substitute. For an adult version, add 1-2 cups of white rum or light rum to the punch bowl just before serving. If you don't have fresh mint, you can use 1-2 teaspoons of mint extract, but fresh mint provides the best flavor. Garnish with lemon and lime wheels for a beautiful presentation.
