Tracee have you made these before? If so how big of a container would one need to store the teas in?

Tracee · 01-18-2006, 06:02 PM

Not shore what size but a nice glass jar with a tight lid would be good.

I figured maybe a mason jar or the like but just wondered if it might make more than that. Guess we will wait and see.

I make this each Christmas. I store mine in a gallon sized ziploc baggie. I call it Russian Tea.

Kim,

I make a sugar free version of it as well. Tang comes in sugar free, the instant tea has no sugar (and can be decaf if you like), I use the scoopable splenda instead of regular sugar, and you can get sugar free lemonaide mix as well. ;)
