Ingredients

Pitcher (6 drinks) - about 420 ml of measured ingredients, before ice and dilution.

Timings and per-glass steps are written for one drink and are not scaled. A full jug takes longer to chill, so stir or shake until it is properly cold rather than by the clock, and pour over fresh ice one glass at a time.
