Serves four to six. Steep gently with the spices, sweeten with honey, and ladle into mugs, leaving the spices behind.
You'll need
- 3 tea bags of Tetley Lemon and Ginger
- 1 litre freshly boiled water (100C)
- 3 tablespoons honey, to taste
- 1 orange, sliced
- 1 cinnamon stick and 2 cloves

Method
- Put the bags, orange slices, cinnamon, cloves and fresh ginger in a large pan. Pour over the freshly boiled water.
- Steep gently for 8 to 10 minutes without boiling hard, removing the tea bags after 5 minutes so it does not turn bitter.
- Stir in the honey to taste.
- Ladle into mugs or heatproof glasses, leaving the spices behind. A warming, caffeine-free, alcohol-free batch for a crowd.
- Hold it on the lowest heat with a lid to serve over time; let it boil and the spice and citrus aromas cook away.
