Hints from Heloise

Dear Heloise: I am looking for a recipe that you make in bulk for instant spiced tea. The only ingredients I recall are powdered orange breakfast drink and instant tea. – Margie in Texas

This Friendship Tea is delicious, and it also makes a great hostess or housewarming gift when put in a pretty jar along with directions on how to make it.

2 1/2 cups powdered orange-flavored breakfast drink

1 3/4 cups powdered instant tea (not sweetened)

2 to 2 1/2 cups sugar

1 small package unsweetened lemonade mix (small packet that makes 2 quarts when mixed with water)

1 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves

1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Combine ingredients and store in a container with an airtight lid. To make a glass, add 1 to 2 rounded teaspoons to 6 to 8 ounces of water. Stir well and add ice.– Heloise
