Best Orange Crystal Russian Tea Recipes
GRANDMA'S RUSSIAN TEA
I grew up drinking this tea at my grandmother's house. I now fix it at my house on really cold days, when I am sick (lots of vitamin C!), and at Christmas. It is perfect to let simmer on the stove to make the house smell good and to serve to guests. I have no idea why its called 'Russian' tea; that is just what my grandmother always called it. Use any tea you like. I've used regular black tea, decaf, and cinnamon spice, and it's all great. If using spiced tea, you may want to adjust the amount of cinnamon, cloves, and allspice. This is also great reheated!

RUSSIAN TEA
I love this tangy beverage on a cold winter's morning when I want something tasty and hot, but don't want coffee! It makes a great gift from your kitchen, too! If calories are your concern, use an artificially sweetened orange drink mix, eliminate the sugar and sweeten to taste with sugar substitute.

TODD'S RUSSIAN TEA
This recipe is based on my mother's Russian Tea recipe. I serve this at every Christmas party I host. I don't know why this beverage is called "Russian Tea." However, many people in rural North Carolina make a version of it around the winter holidays.

PINEAPPLE ORANGE RUSSIAN TEA
The absolute BEST remedy for a cold! This is a bit different from most Russian tea recipes, much tastier in my opinion. But I'm partial since it's my mom's recipe! Delicious served hot or cold. It also freezes well. It makes such a big batch--I generally put 1 pitcher in the fridge and 1 in the freezer.

Steps:
- In a large pot bring 6 cups water and 1 cup sugar to boiling. Add 4 regular size tea bags (or 2 family size; regular or decaf) and boil for 5 minutes.
- Remove tea bags and reduce heat to low. Add 1 large can orange juice concentrate, stirring lightly to help it melt. Once orange juice is incorporated, add 1 can unsweetened pineapple juice, 6-7 sticks of cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon whole cloves. Slowly pour in 1 liter of ginger ale and heat to serve (I return heat to medium while stirring occasionally, 5-10 minutes). Remove cloves and cinnamon sticks with a small slotted spoon or sieve. Serve.
