Spice Tea







Spice tea is a hot orange flavored drink. Wonderful for sipping by the fire on a cold winter night or when gathering with loved ones during the holiday season. My husband first introduced this to me when we were dating and I have fond memories of this comforting and delicious tea.

Keep in mind, the amounts of these ingredients are all about the desired flavor and can all be modified to suit your taste. If you want more orange flavor you can add more tang, of you want it sweeter then use more sugar, for a more sour flavor use more lemon etc etc.

Ingredients:

2 cups tang
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup unsweetened instant tea
3 packets true lemon flavor (NOT lemonade, there is a huge difference)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground cloves

Instructions:

Simply mix all the ingredients in a large bowl, then transfer to a jar or container with a lid as moisture in the air will cause the tea to become hardened.

Depending on how flavorful you want your tea, mix a couple spoonfuls into a cup of hot water and enjoy.
