This tea hit the spot and quenched my tea yearnings. I've never tried adding 5-spice to tea prior, but glad I made your tea, Mikekey. It was great on this cold day. Thank you for sharing. Made it for PickMe Tag.

This is a good basic recipe for a hot tea. You could add whatever kind of spices you want. I am trying to teach myself to make different teas. I don't even know how to really sweeten them myself yet. So I just ended up putting some sugar in it when I was done and it was just fine. I had to use Black tea. Thanks for the recipe!

I really enjoyed this special tea Mikekey. So much flavor, it was really quick and easy to make with terrific results. I enjoyed it both hot and cold and didn't bother to strain it. Thanks so much for sharing a recipe that I will make often. Made For Beverage Anyone? Tag Game.
