HOT SPICED TEA FOR THE HOLIDAYS



Hot Spiced Tea for the Holidays image

This is an old family favorite, handed down from my great-grandmother. The holidays officially begin with Christmas carols and my favorite hot spiced tea! Definitely a seasonal comfort beverage for me! I prefer to use fresh juices with pulp. The flavors are different. Canned pineapple in light syrup is best. Set the pineapple chunks aside for the rest of your holiday baking. Store leftovers in refrigerator and reheat as needed.

HOT SPICED TEA (TANG-BASED, AKA RUSSIAN TEA)



Hot Spiced Tea (Tang-Based, Aka Russian Tea) image

This powdered hot tea mix flavored with orange, cloves, and cinnamon has been a favorite of mine since childhood... and is now a favorite inexpensive gift for friends and family. Our family can't go through fall or winter without it! (The vitamin C, cinnamon, and cloves are all proven germfighters, too!)

Time 5m

Yield 2 3/4 cups, 35 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

20 ounces tang powdered drink mix (one full tub)
1/3 cup instant tea (I use the kind with lemon)
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/8 teaspoon ground cloves
2 tablespoons granulated sugar (or 3 if you like it sweeter)

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients thoroughly. A food processor makes this effortless, but I managed with a blender for years, and have even stirred it together by hand when necessary-- although it's not quite as pretty when done that way.
  • To enjoy: stir 2-3 heaping teaspoons into a mug of hot water and adjust to suit your own taste. Ahhh!
  • This mix starts to harden in the jar after six months or so, so drink up! Servings and Yield are approximations only.
