This recipe leaves something, or should I say, alot to be desired. I made it as stated and wouldn't bother to make it ever again.

This spicy mint tea sounds good, but there is no tea in the recipe...

2 cups water

1/4 t each ground cinnamon and ground allspice

stick cinnamon

Microwave 3 mins. Stir. Microwave 3 more mins

Add 2 mint tea bags

Steep 5 mins.

Add agave nectar.

Enjoy.
