Lime Tea Punch image

My Mum got this recipe about 20 years ago from one of her friends. It is delicious served chilled in the summertime. Prep time is for the tea and sugar mixes, cook time is an estimate for chilling as I haven't made this in ages. I estimate the serving size to be 250 ml, but maximum yield is around 2 litres.
