Following are delicious recipes for
both hot and iced teas. Each recipe calls for tea
bags, however substituting loose tea for the
tea bags will make a much tastier beverage. Use 1 teaspoon loose tea
per tea bag.
Combine water, sugar, cloves, and cinnamon
in a saucepan. Heat until the sugar dissolves, stirring
constantly. Bring to a boil. Preheat a teapot and add
teabags. Pour the spice mixture over the tea bags. Cover
and steep 5 minutes. Heat the orange juice until hot.
Strain the tea and add the orange juice. Serve with lemon
slices if desired.
