Ingredients

1 cup instant tea
2 cups Tang
2 cups sweetened lemonade drink mix CountryTime
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves

Instructions

Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a bowl. If you'd like, you can run the mix through a food processor to make the mix finer, but with powders we use I don't find it necessary. 1 cup instant tea, 2 cups Tang, 2 cups sweetened lemonade drink mix, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground cloves
Showcase the powder in a mason jar or another airtight container with a tag attached to it labled “Friendship Tea”.
To make a cup of tea, stir 1 tablespoon into 6-8 ounces of hot water. Decorate with cinnamon sticks, cloves and star anise if desired.

Notes

You can make this as an iced tea as well. Mix two tablespoons of powder mix into a cup of hot water. Stir to dissolve, then pour over ice.
