Mmmm, I'm sure this tea doesn't only taste delicious but smells wonderful as well. Thank you for sharing this recipe, it's indeed perfect for this season. :)
Sounds good. Makes me think of spiced apple juice.
This is new to me and worth trying! I love fresh cranberries this time of year and they provide such lively flavor!
Have a wonderful week!
What a clever girl you are xoxox Clarice
This sounds delish! I think I will have to borrow this recipe this Thanksgiving. My mother and sister in law would love it as would I ;)
Thank you!
forgot to ask a question....do I strain it upon serving? I'm guessing yes but I've never made tea this way and just wanted to be sure.
Thank you.
