I’m always down to enjoy a cup of tea, regardless of the season. With the fruit additions, this tea becomes a perfect choice anytime and anywhere you want a satisfying and fruity beverage.

Serves 8

• 5 cinnamon-apple spice tea bags (or hot cinnamon spice)
• 6 cups boiling water
• 3–4 Tbsp honey
• 3 apples, peeled and diced
• 4 cinnamon sticks
• 1 tsp cloves
• 2 cups apple juice or cranberry juice

In a 3-quart saucepan, steep teabags in boiling water for 5 minutes to create a strong brew. Remove the tea bags and dispose. Add the honey and stir until dissolved.

Add apples, cinnamon sticks, cloves, and juice to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for 30 minutes, until apples are tender.

Keep the mixture at a simmer or on a hot plate until ready to serve.

Tip: Place the cinnamon sticks and cloves in a garni bag or coffee filter for easy disposal.
