Heloises Friendship Tea

By JudyS

A tangy, spicy delight to be enjoyed hot or cold. Put it in a decorative jar, wrap a ribbon around it and include a pretty coffee mug or teacup -- a special gift.

Ingredients

• 2-1/2 cups powdered orange flavored breakfast drink
• 1-3/4 cups powdered instant tea, unsweetened
• 2 to 2-1/2 cups sugar or to taste
• 1 package of lemonade mix (that makes 2 quarts)
• 1-1/2 teaspoons ground clove
• 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• you can pump up the flavor by adding a little more of the spices you like. I like cinnamon,of so I add a pinch or so more and sometimes a pinch of nutmeg as well.

Preparation

Step 1

1. Mix the ingredients together
2. Put the mixture in a tin or jar
3. To serve - use 1 to 2 teaspoons of mix for 6 to 8 ounces of hot water.

you can pump up the flavor by adding a little more of the spices you like. I like cinnamon,of so I add a pinch or so more and sometimes a pinch of nutmeg as well.

you can also experiment with the amount of sugar - a very "go by feel" recipe since some might like their tea less or more sweet.
