Method Pour boiling water over tea bags in a heated teapot, and steep for 5 minutes. Remove tea bags and pour tea into a saucepan, preferably glass or stainless steel. Add orange juice, lemon juice, sugar, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. Keep hot, not simmering, for at least 30 minutes before serving, so that flavours may blend. Hold longer if necessary. Serve hot with a paper-thin slice of lemon floating in each cup. |
