This is an old favorite around our house for those cold Michigan fall and winters and especially nice at football games.

1 batch (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 gallon water
15 whole cloves
6 cinnamon sticks
4 tea bags

Directions

1
Boil water with cloves and cinnamon rapidly for 20 minutes.
2
Remove from heat, cover, and add 4 tea bags, and let "steep" for at least 4 hours (we like to let it steep overnight).
3
After "steeping" is complete, in another pan combine: 2 cups Orange juice 2 cups Pineapple juice 1 cup Lemon juice 2 cups Sugar. Heat gently, stirring to melt and mix sugar.
4
Drain "solids" from tea mixture. Combine all together and heat to enjoy

Simple and delicious. I used Irish Breakfast tea. The spices and fruit juices went together nicely. The pineapple makes it taste a lot like cider. This tea is soothing hot and refreshing cold. Would probably also make a nice hot toddy with a little rum or vodka added in. It was a little sweet for me though and I'd probably cut back on the juice mixture next time; also the ingredients for the juice mixture really should be included in the ingredients list. They're half the ingredients and not necessarily things people always have on hand. Thanks.

I only let this steep for 2 hours I was to impatient LOL I am not a fan of "flavoured" teas and this is my first time making one. WELLLLLLLLLL I am converted now. My DH and I are sitting here sipping and going HMMMMMMMM YUM. GREAT recipe and one that has been unreviewed for years. Definite keeper for me. I would give this recipe 5 stars ( more if I could) but the ingredient list does not list the juices and sugar until the directions part. If the poster could change that I will give a 5 star rating.
