To use, mix 3 to 4 tablespoons of mix with 1 cup hot or cold water. Adjust to taste. See how to make traditional Russian tea cakes rolled in confectioner's sugar.
When ready to serve, simply add hot water and stir. Mix all ingredients together. Store in an airtight container. Add one heaping tablespoon of mix (or to taste) to a cup of hot water and stir. If black tea is something you choose to avoid, you can make Mock Russian Tea by simply leaving out the instant tea. It still tastes warm and cozy.
