Be sure and strain out the spices and cinnamon stick before serving! I forgot to include this in the directions.
I made this for our company Christmas party. I started it on the stove and then put it in my crockpot to keep it warm. I put the cloves and allspice in a tea infuser so I wouldn't have to strain them out. This is also wonderful cold. I saved the cooked cranberries I strained out and added 1/3 cup sugar 1/4 cup orange juice and pureed it in my blender. It made a wonderful cranberry sauce. You could add pectin or unflavored gelatin to make it thicker.
This was delicious! I made it just for me and my little son not a special occasion. So now it's in my fridge and it has been hard to only have one big mug a night! Actually I am sitting at work now with a snow storm on the way wishing I had a thermos of the tea! YUM! Thank you for sharing!
I just brewed a batch of this wonderful tea. I made the recipe as is - with absolutely no changes - and it is wonderful! I can't believe how flavorful and good it is. This is definitely a keeper.
I recommend making this a few days ahead & let it sit in the fridge. It's easy to reheat when you want a mug. i didn't even strain it first left all the cranberries & spices floating in the mix. the flavors meld wonderfully! a winter holiday treat!
I made this a couple years ago for my Ladies Bible Study group. They absolutely loved it and is now requested at every special occassion! I made as recipe says... sometimes adding a little less sugar but otherwise no changes! Wonderful!
A wonderful change from mulled apple cider! I basically followed the recipe exactly except added an extra cinnamon stick. Fresh squeezed orange juice is a big plus. Don't forget to stain off the spices at the end before serving.
This was fantastic! I loved it and will be bringing it to my mom's group next week. Thanks!
this was good but a lot of work and fuss for the end result. I don't know if I will make it again but thanks for the recipe.
In only used half the sugar called for and it was plenty sweet to me.
