Have a Better Life

I’m not a very “drinky” person, I like to drink a beer from time to time, a Piña Colada at night, a whiskey cream but I can spend months without a drink.

For today’s light recipe and once we are in summer (at least half of the world), I think it is appropriate to bring here another drink. I say another because I’ve already posted one drink recipe before: Stirrings Red Sangria.

I found the recipe I’m posting today on My Recipes and with no further delay here it is Citrus Tea Punch:

Ingredients

• 6 cups water, divided
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 3 whole cloves
• 2 family-sized tea bags
• 1 (3-inch) cinnamon stick
• 1 cup orange juice
• 1 (6-ounce) can thawed lemonade concentrate, undiluted
• Ice
• Lemon slices (optional)

Preparation

• Combine 4 cups water and sugar in a heavy saucepan; bring to a boil.
• Cook until sugar dissolves; remove from heat.
• Add cloves, tea bags, and cinnamon; steep 5 minutes.
• Strain mixture through a sieve into a pitcher; discard solids. Add remaining 2 cups water, juice, and lemonade concentrate; stir well.
• Chill. Serve over ice, and garnish with lemon slices, if desired.

12 servings (serving size: about 2/3 cup)
