  • 1 3/4 cups instant lemonade mix
  • 20 ounces Tang
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Mix all ingredients together in a zip lock bag until blended uniformly.

  • This tang tea recipe is a perfect gift.  Put it in jars, and seal up tight.  When your friends and family drink it, they will think fondly of you.
  • To serve, add 2-3 teaspoons of the tang tea mix to boiling water.
  • Be sure to leave room at the top of the cup because this spiced tea mix will fizz up when you mix with boiling water.
