Spice Tea Mix (also known as Russian Tea or Tang Tea) is a warm, comforting blend of instant tea, orange, lemon, and cozy spices. It’s nostalgic, soothing, and perfect for cold-weather sipping. Just mix it with hot water and enjoy the bright citrus flavor layered with cinnamon and cloves. It’s a wonderful alternative to cocoa and feels like a hug in a mug.
This mix makes a thoughtful, budget-friendly holiday gift and stores beautifully in jars. Keep a batch on hand for holiday mornings, quiet evenings, or whenever you need something warm and uplifting.
