Spiced Citrus Tea
Ingredients
2½ tablespoons orange juice
The juice of half a lemon
1 heaped teaspoonful of tealeaves
2 cups water
1 heaped tablespoonful of sugar
1 whole clove
A small piece of a cinnamon stick
Instructions
First pour the water into a saucepan and then add the piece of
cinnamon and the clove. Now bring the water to the boil; meanwhile
put the tealeaves into a bowl. Then when the water is boiling
pour it together with the spices onto the tealeaves; now leave
to infuse for about 5 minutes.
After this stir, then add the sugar; now stir again until the
sugar has dissolved; then add the orange and lemon juice. Now
return the brew to the pan and gently reheat - but be careful
not to allow the tea to simmer or boil as this will spoil the
flavor. Then when the tea is hot strain and pour into cups or
mugs.
