Friendship Tea Recipes

 I am always asked for Friendship Tea mix and I have two variations today for those that have been looking for recipes. This is a spicy, simple tea mix that makes a wonderful holiday, housewarming or hostess gift.

Friendship Tea Mix

18 ounces Tang drink mix
1 cup instant iced tea
2 cups granulated sugar
1 package powdered lemonade mix
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Mix and place into a covered jar or other container. For hot tea mix 2/3 tablespoon to 1 cup of hot water. For iced tea mix substitute cold water and pour over ice.

1 jar (18 oz.) Tang or store brand equilivant
2 cups granulated sugar

1/3 cup instant tea mix
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves

Combine all ingredients and store in an airtight container. To serve, stir 1 1/2 tablespoons of mix into 1 cup hot water, stirring until the candies dissolve.
