  1. very good. I didn't have cranberry juice so I used 1 1/2 c. fresh cranberries, boiled them with everything else. When it was done I used an hand mixer to break it up added fresh squeezed OJ and strained it. I think the absence of the juice made it less sweet. I like this with our Thanksgiving meal for the "tea toaters"
     
  2. it was quite good, but too sweet for my taste. next time I might try a different brand of cranberry juice & less sugar. all in all, though, it was quite yummy.
     
  3. I really enjoyed this tea. I used 100% cranberry juice, which may be why it wasn't too sweet for my taste. I didn't have any family size tea bags, so I used 12 regular size ones. I must say this tastes incredible hot, also. Very nice for the yucky rainy day we're having today.
     
  4. We thought this drink was perfectly delicious. Only used 1 cup of sugar,though, as we don't like real sweet drinks. A great spicy, tangy, sassy flavor. I plan to make it again and serve for Christmas dinner. Thanks.
     
  5. We enjoyed this very nice combination of fruit and spice, sweet/tart flavors. I used only one cup of sugar, and might even use less next time (I usually don't add any sugar to tea with lemon). Very refreshing.
