Hot Spiced Tea (Tang-Based, Aka Russian Tea) image

This powdered hot tea mix flavored with orange, cloves, and cinnamon has been a favorite of mine since childhood... and is now a favorite inexpensive gift for friends and family. Our family can't go through fall or winter without it! (The vitamin C, cinnamon, and cloves are all proven germfighters, too!)

Time 5m

Yield 2 3/4 cups, 35 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

20 ounces tang powdered drink mix (one full tub)
1/3 cup instant tea (I use the kind with lemon)
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/8 teaspoon ground cloves
2 tablespoons granulated sugar (or 3 if you like it sweeter)

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients thoroughly. A food processor makes this effortless, but I managed with a blender for years, and have even stirred it together by hand when necessary-- although it's not quite as pretty when done that way.
  • To enjoy: stir 2-3 heaping teaspoons into a mug of hot water and adjust to suit your own taste. Ahhh!
  • This mix starts to harden in the jar after six months or so, so drink up! Servings and Yield are approximations only.

SUGAR-FREE SPICED TEA (RUSSIAN) TEA



Sugar-Free Spiced Tea (Russian) Tea image

Yes, there are a couple of recipes here at Zaar for this wonderful mix, but I didn't see any with specifics and I think one used sugar-free Tang, which I cannot find anywhere. So, I gave up. One day, I came across this and EUREKA! I had to post because you CAN find all the ingredients at Walmart Super Centers, and most any market that sells Crystal Light. Isn't that WONDERFUL?? SO...diabetics rejoice and enjoy the holidays!
