Spiced Tea Mix

I’m not sure what is better about a cup of hot Spiced Tea – the taste or the smell!  The amazing aroma of hot Spiced Tea just screams “Fall is here!”  I love it!  There are many different Spiced Tea mixes but this is one of my favorites.  It makes a lot of dry mix so be sure you have a sealable, airtight container big enough to store it in or you can cut the recipe in half to make less.

 

Spiced Tea Mix

1 cup Lipton Instant Tea powder mix (unsweetened)

2 cups Tang (Orange breakfast drink) powder mix

1 cup white sugar

1 large (or 2 small) envelopes of Wyler’s or Kool-Aid lemonade mix (unsweetened)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon ground cloves

 

Mix all of the ingredients together until well blended.  (I put everything in a large mixing bowl and stir it with a spoon until completely mixed, then pour it into my storage container using a kitchen funnel).

Use 2 teaspoons to 2 tablespoons of dry mix per cup of Spiced Tea (depending on the size of your cup and also your taste, as a little more mix will make it sweeter and give it a stronger spice taste).  Put the mix in the cup, fill with hot water and stir.  Now, find a fireplace and a big comfy chair to curl up in and you’re all set!
