Super Spiced Black Tea

Feelah_the_tigress's Note:

This is my version of the traditional Spiced Black tea. I tried to include a good number of spices to make it super tasty! It's quite good hot but not so good chilled. Note: I've listed things in teaspoons because this website won't let me list it in parts, but it's technically in a ratio, so you can make whatever quantity you want.

Very flavorful. A bit like Chinese 5-spice. I didn't use a tea ball. I have some nifty little pouches that fold over to make homemade tea bags, and that worked great. I love tea in the fall and winter, and this one will go into the regular rotation. Made for Fall 2011 PAC game.
