I love this recipe! I do decrease the recipe a bit as I am trying to do less sugar, but I really love the flavor of the cloves and cloves are healthy! A great tea for December in Louisiana where it is hot but you still want some holiday flavor!

Very nice tea. It was easy to make. I used fresh squeezed orange juice and lemon juice. It reminded me of a better version of that holiday spice tea mix made with tang and cinnamon candies. The tea flavor was dominent. I used Lipton's decaf. Thanks for the recipe! Made for Cupid's Choice game.

Really yummy and refreshing! My husband is diabetic, so I used Splenda and sugar-free orange juice, and it still tasted great!
