The following comes from a quaint little book, one I love as it has the most adorable drawings and the layout is just  so clever! It is pretty much a book filled with lovely words of inspiration, written using the 'apple' as its main theme. I am sure you will enjoy!

The book's title is "An Apple A Day"  by Karla Dornacher

Here's just a snippet which I thought might be a nice drink for the holiday season~

Appleberry Tea

This delicious, fragrant tea would be wonderful served for a luncheon or any large gathering of ladies
It's easiest to prepare this delightful brew in a 30~cup coffee maker.

Simply combine the following ingredients and heat:
1 gallon of apple juice
32 rasberry tea bags
16 regular tea bags
1 quart of water
2 teaspoons of lemon juice
1/2 cup of sugar

Just a tip:
Pour hot water into your teapot as you prepare the tea
When ready, pour out the hot water and fill with tea.
This will heat your teapot and keep your tea from cooling before serving.
For fun: If they're in season, add a couple of fresh rasberries to each cup for a splash of colour!
