I need to get on a wheel again.
It's been too long.
Another tea I remember from my youth was something my mom made and called "Russian tea"
I was pure instant slurppa, but was really good.
▢ 2 cups white sugar
▢ 2 cups orange-flavored drink mix (such as Tang)
▢ 1 cup instant tea powder
▢ 1 (3 ounce) package powdered lemonade mix
▢ 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
▢ ½ teaspoon ground cloves
To Make:
Stir 3 to 4 tablespoons of dry mix into 1 cup of hot or cold water.
Makes ~40 cups
Ginger stuff is crazy good too.
every so often, I find Organic ginger for about $2/pound
I'll buy $10 worth and make candied/crystallized ginger.
The best part? The "Waste" product is ginger syrup. I used it in mixed drinks(rum and apple soda) and added it to plain seltzer to make my own ginger ale(well, soda, since it wasn't fermented,) all last summer, but I could easily see making a bottle that's spiced too maybe with orange peel, to dose hot or iced black tea with.
Probably good on its own too
