Russian Spiced Tea

During the winter, especially the holidays, when I’m cold, this is my go to drink. It’s got flavor, vitamin C, and warms me up from the inside out.

Ingredients:

2 cups Tang, instant orange drink mix

1 cup instant unflavored tea

1 cup sugar

6 Tablespoons sugar-sweetened lemonade mix (I prefer Country Time)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground cloves.

Directions:

Combine all ingredients; mix well. Store in an airtight container.

To serve:

Add 2 Tablespoons mix to 3/4 cup boiling water, stir.

Note:

I like to add a slice of fresh lemon and a slice of fresh ginger to my hot drink. This is especially good when you have any kind of cold, the ginger helps open your sinus passageways.

Happy Holidays and stay warm and healthy.
