Here's a fun tea mix that is quick to make and, packaged in a jar with a cute fabric lid and a homemade recipe tag, would make an awesome hostess or neighbor Christmas gift! I first had this tea years ago...the one year I attended Western Christian College and lived in the dorm there. Many of the girls brought this with them so that they could have something yummy that reminded them of home. I'm glad they shared! And thanks to Nina C...our dorm mother who graciously put up with all of us banging on her door begging to use her stove and kettle so we could make this!
Friendship Tea Mix
18 oz of Tang drink mix
1 cup instant iced tea
2 cups granulated sugar
1 package unsweetened lemonade mix (Kool-Aid works good)
1-1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp ground cloves
Mix above ingredients well. Place into a covered jar or other covered container. The recommended ratio of mix to hot water is 2/3 Tbsp mix to 1 cup of water. I prefer mine stronger though, so I add a slightly heaping tablespoon to 1 cup of water. Feel free to add the ratio you would like. Stir and enjoy!
This mix will make approx. 5 jelly jars full of mix...so gift away!
