- 2 cups Fresh cranberries
- 4 cups Water
- 1 cup Orange juice
- 2 pieces Black tea bags
- 1 piece Cinnamon stick
- 4 pieces Cloves
- 2 tablespoons Honey

Instructions
Rinse the fresh cranberries and set them aside.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the water and cranberries, then bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the cranberries pop and release their juices.
Add the orange juice, cinnamon stick, and cloves to the pot, stirring gently to combine.
Place the tea bags into the pot and let them steep for 5 minutes, ensuring they are fully submerged.
Remove the tea bags, cinnamon stick, and cloves from the pot using a slotted spoon or tongs.

Pour the tea through a fine mesh strainer into a teapot or serving pitcher to remove any solids.
Serve the cranberry tea hot, garnished with lemon slices in each cup.
