SparklingAppleCinnamonTea(Hot or Cold!)<br />
This sparkling apple cinnamon tea is made with<br />
Sparkling Apple Cider, black tea steeped with cinnamon<br />
sticks and just a dash of lemon juice. Not only does it<br />
taste delicious, it smells delicious too! As soon as you<br />
start to pour it you?ll understand why I like to say, ?It<br />
smells like autumn in a cup!?<br />
Instructions:<br />
Place tea bags and cinnamon sticks in a large<br />
glass-measuring cup. Fill the measuring cup with 2<br />
cups of boiling water. Let the tea steep for about 10<br />
minutes.<br />
To make it a cold:<br />
Chill your bottle of Sparkling Cider for 1 hour. Once the<br />
10 minutes are up and your tea is ready, remove the tea<br />
bags and cinnamon sticks and chill the tea in the<br />
refrigerator for at least 1 hour. In a large pitcher<br />
combine the chilled Sparkling Cider, the chilled black<br />
tea, and fresh lemon juice. Stir and serve over ice.<br />
Garnish with cinnamon sticks if you wish.<br />
To make it a warm:<br />
Once the 10 minutes are up and your tea is ready,<br />
remove the tea bags and cinnamon sticks and pour the<br />
(still hot) tea into a large teapot. Pour Sparkling Apple<br />
Cider into the teapot. Pour in the fresh squeezed lemon<br />
juice. Stir and pour into a teacup. Garnish with<br />
cinnamon sticks if you wish.<br />
