i'm putting this here, rather than in russia, since i doubt very much that it is truly russian.
 
anyone have a good, reliable mix for this? as i recall, it contains instant tea, apple cider, cinnamon, and tang, but i am not sure if there is anything else, nor do i have any clue as to the proportions of the ingredients.
 
any help would be appreciated!

My mom made it when we were kids--always called it Spiced Tea. I've made it since and given jars of it to my sisters for Christmas--very nostalgic.
