Lenox Drinks of the Season

Lenox & TwitterMoms Drinks of the Season





More Drinks of the Season Recipes

Hot Cranberry Tea

1 bottle (32 ounces) cranberry juice
2 cups sugar
1 can (6 ounces) frozen orange juice concentrate
3/4 cup thawed lemonade concentrate
1/3 cup red-hot candies
1 cinnamon stick
2 whole cloves
Directions
In a 3-qt. saucepan, combine all ingredients; bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil for 7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove cinnamon and cloves. To serve, mix 1 cup concentrate and 2 cups water; heat through. Store concentrate in a covered container in the refrigerator. Yield: 18 cups (1-1/2 quarts concentrate



Cinnamon Apple Tea

1/2 cup Apple Juice or Cider
1/2 cup Water
1/8 - 1/4 tsp. Cinnamon, ground (adjust to your own taste)

Preparation

Place all the ingredients in a "Pyrex" measuring cup and heat in the microwave oven on "high" for 2-1/2 to 3 minutes until the contents just begins to boil. Pour into a coffee to tea cup and serve.

Here are a couple of great recipes I enjoy during the autumn and holiday season. You can liven the event up by placing a Cinnamon stick in each cup or by tying a colorful ( I love to use plaid) ribbon around the handle of a cup. I love to make a batch up and serve directly out of a large punch bowl into decorated punch cups.

Hope you enjoy the recipes I have listed these as part of the TwitterMoms group and to Lenox who makes some of the most beautiful serving and glass ware. There is currently a contest at Twitter Moms title Lenox Drinks of the season.
