Friendship Tea Time
Come and share a pot of tea
My home is warm and
My friendship free
It's autumn time and the weathers getting cooler. What a great time to invite a friend for some friendship time of chatting, tea and cookies.
Here is a recipe for some old fashioned Friendship tea
1 jar (15 oz) instant orange breakfast mix
1 cup of granulated sugar
1/2 cup of presweetened lemonade mix
1 package cherry flavored unsweetened drink mix
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
*1 cup unsweetened instant tea mix * This can be added if you are a tea drinker.
I am not a "tea" drinker so I don't add the tea to the mix.
to make this sugar free: substitute the orange and lemonade with sugar free versions and use splenda in place of the sugar.
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients; mix well. Store in an airtight container.
To Serve, stir 2 heaping tablespoons tea mix into 8 ounces hot or cold water
This make a nice gift. Place mixture into a plastic bag and insert into a fabric bag and tie with a ribbon. Tie on a card with the instructions for use.
