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.

Steps:
- Place 3 qts of water in a large pot, and add cloves and cinnamon sticks.

- This tea refrigerates well for a few days with the cloves and cinnamon sticks removed. Always serve hot, though.
