Simply Home: Spiced Tea Recipe

I am excited about Thanksgiving and Christmas being so near!  What a joyful time of year!  If Christmas had a flavor, this recipe is what I would imagine it to be.

It has passed through my family as long as I can remember, always being a favorite of mine.  It also makes a nice gift in a pretty jar and kids have fun mixing the ingredients. 

 1 cup sugar

1 cup Tang

1/4 cup unsweetened instant tea

1/2 package unsweetened lemon drink mix (I use Kool-Aid)        

1 TBS cinnamon

1 TBS cloves

Mix and store in an airtight container.

For each cup filled with boiling water, stir in two – three teaspoons.

It is so good of you to stop by!  Thank you for visiting!

I love this Spiced Tea! In fact, I still have a handwritten index card from when I wrote down this recipe as a little girl. I was thinking of sharing it on the blog this season. How fun that you did here! Indeed, this drink is so refreshing this time of year!

Blessings,
Katie

It sure sounds easy and yummy enough! I think I may make it this weekend for a church gathering we hope to have at our house. Think it would work to keep it warm in a crock-pot?

Jacinda, I am so glad to see you here! It seems like it would keep fine in a crock-pot, although I haven't tried it. That is a good idea, and I may try it with company over the holidays!
