Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Black tea bags
- 6 cups Water
- 2 cups Orange juice
- 1 cup Pineapple juice
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 piece Lemon, sliced
- 1 piece Orange, sliced
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cloves
Instructions
In a large pot or saucepan, bring the 6 cups of water to a boil.
Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and add the black tea bags. Let them steep for 5 minutes, then carefully remove and discard the tea bags.
Add the orange juice, pineapple juice, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and cloves to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Slice the lemon and orange into thin rounds and add them to the pot. Gently simmer the mixture over low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure the flavors blend.
Taste the tea and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar, if desired.
Remove from heat and strain the tea into a heatproof pitcher or serve directly from the pot if you prefer to include the fruit slices as a garnish.
Pour the tea into individual mugs or teacups and serve warm. Optionally, garnish each cup with a fresh slice of lemon or orange.
