    1/2 cup sugar
    1 pk (koolade) lemonade
    1/2 teasp cinnamon
    1/2 teasp cloves
    mix together in container

    then;
    cup of hot water, 1-2 teaspoon of the "tea"
    sit back and enjoy your tea!

    Thank-you, thank-you!!

    I had this at a recent guild meeting and asked for a recipe. The gal gave me a rough idea, but I wasn't too sure that it was close enough measurements

    She also had another tea recipe that had black raspberry jello in the mix and it great as well. She said she got it from an old Weight Watchers book. If anyone has that one I'd love to have it as well. She is supposed to be finding it for me, but I haven't heard and we're not close friends so I havn't bothered her with it.

    I went looking & found this Raspberry Tea Mix recipe. I'm going to try it & also the friendship tea as posted here.

    3/4 cup instant tea, unsweetened
    4 (.23 ounce) packets raspberry-flavored unsweetened drink mix
    2 tablespoons lemonade drink mix
    1 cup granulated sugar
    1 teaspoon ground cardamom
    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1 teaspoon ground ginger
    1/2 teaspoon allspice

    Stir all ingredients in mixing bowl with wire whisk. Transfer mixture to 1-pint wide-mouth jar. If jar is full, gently tap bottom of jar on palm of hand to settle mix. Seal jar.

    Decorate jar and attach the following instructions on a gift tag:

    Spiced Raspberry Tea:

    Makes 1 (6 ounce) serving.

    1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons Spiced Raspberry Tea Mix
    6 ounces boiling water

    Sprig of fresh mint (optional)

    Combine jar mix with boiling water. Adjust amount of mix to your taste. Stir to dissolve mix. Serve hot or add ice for refreshing hot weather cooler. Garnishwith fresh raspberries,orange slice or mint.
