Make Your Own Friendship Tea
Put your homemade tea bags inside a Friendship Tea Bag

I remember making a recipe something like this when I was younger. I'm so glad it's still around.

Friendship Tea Mix - #1

Ingredients:
18 ounces Tang drink mix
1 cup instant iced tea
2 cups granulated sugar
1 package powdered lemonade mix
