Thank-you, thank-you!!

I had this at a recent guild meeting and asked for a recipe. The gal gave me a rough idea, but I wasn't too sure that it was close enough measurements

She also had another tea recipe that had black raspberry jello in the mix and it great as well. She said she got it from an old Weight Watchers book. If anyone has that one I'd love to have it as well. She is supposed to be finding it for me, but I haven't heard and we're not close friends so I havn't bothered her with it.

with this recipe, experiment , with adding the black rasberry to this?maybe a teaspoon added to the hot water along with the mix? can do about anything with this tea.

peppermint, and anything else, more spices, allspice cardimon, whatever you fancy.
