1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp nutmeg |

and store in an airtight container.
When you are ready to serve, use 2 teaspoons of Spiced Tea
Mix to 1 cup boiling water.
Gift idea: Make a gift
basket filled with this tea mix, a pretty tea cup and homemade
cookies. (other neat things for the gift basket could be an
embroidered hanky, fancy teaspoon, and other garage sale finds,
etc..) Use a pretty jar or canning jar to hold the tea - tie
a ribbon with a few cinnamon sticks in the bow. Add the instructions
to a jar label or gift tag.
