Russian Tea

This is made by placing a slice of lemon in each cup before pouring in the boiling hot tea. A clove in each cup is a pleasant addition.

Formosa oolong is the most delicate in flavor for iced tea, and should not be too strong. To every quart of tea add the juice of half a lemon. Fill the glasses half full of broken ice and put a thin slice of lemon on top, then pour over the tea, which should be thoroughly chilled.
