Cranberry Tea

I am a tea drinker and I'm always looking for a new tea to try. I came across this recipe for Cranberry Tea and decided to post it for those that enjoy tea as well.

Cranberry Tea
Quart of Cranberry Juice Cocktail
1 1/2 Quart of Water
1 cup of sugar
2 cinnamon sticks
15 whole cloves
1 lemon, thinly sliced
2 2/3 cup freshly brewed tea

In a large soup pot combine cranberry juice, water, sugar, cinnamon sticks and cloves. Bring to a light boil and allow to simmer for ten minues. Next, carefully strain mixture through a wired colander to remove the cinnamon sticks and cloves. Caution, mixture will be very hot. Once this is done, combine your cranberry mixture with the brewed tea. Stir well. Place lemon slices in tea cups and using a ladle carefully pour the fresh hot tea over lemons. Refrigerate leftovers.
