Not Aunt Marions Russian Tea Food
CHEF JOHN'S RUSSIAN TEA CAKES
As the old joke goes, these Russian tea cakes might not be Russian, but at least they're not cakes. No one knows exactly how these came to be known as Russian tea cakes but, nevertheless, they are quite delicious.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange rack in center position of oven.
- Place butter, 1/3 cup packed powdered sugar, walnuts, salt, and vanilla in a bowl. Top with the flour. Mix with your clean hands until the dough starts to clump up. Keep mixing by hand until all the flour and clumps of butter are evenly mixed into the dough and it can be easily formed into balls.
- Scoop out dough and roll by hand into uniformly round balls, just slightly larger than 1 inch. Place on a rimmed baking sheet lined with a silicone baking mat about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in preheated oven until lightly golden, 15 to 25 minutes depending on the size of the cookies.
- Let cool exactly 5 minutes then roll in remaining 1 cup confectioners' sugar. Let cookies cool completely and toss them again in the confectioners' sugar.

RUSSIAN TEA CAKES (NO NUTS)
These are bite-size shortbread-type cookies that are so simple and so popular. They're frequently the first cookie people will eat from my Christmas cookie tray. My mom made these every year for Christmas. She'd roll the dough into balls and we got to dunk the tops in green or red sugar crystals. Now I get to continue the tradition with my sons. My sister makes these for other holidays as well and changes the sugar color accordingly. The recipe is my mom's variation on the recipe from the old Betty Crocker "Cooky Book."

AUNT DOROTHY'S RUSSIAN TEA
When I was growing up I always looked forward to the Russian Tea that my Aunt Dorothy made every Christmas Eve. As soon as the weather turned chilly, I would start longing for a hot, steamy cup. It wasn't unitl I was away at college that I finally thought to ask her for the recipe! I place the whole cloves into a tea ball strainer so they're easy to remove when the tea is ready. If you don't have a tea ball, you can place the cloves in cheesecloth as directed. -Sharon Flenniken, Charlotte, North Carolina

AUNT MARION'S RUSSIAN TEA
Literally, my husband's aunt would make this. Considering many recipes out there that are a dry mix and they are wonderful...I wanted her's that is not a dry version. Finally got it tonight when I fed her daughter. Compared it to one I finally found online & they are similar but there are differences. I will be posting the one I found online as well. No matter how you fix Russian Tea, it is great beverage when you are sick. I like to take a safe to use cup and won't break, to a tub of hot as I can stand it water. Soak & sip on Russian Tea. Then go to bed. And I do feel lil better afterwards.

- Add the Sugar. Add the Orange Juice & Lemon Juice.
- This is to be drank HOT. So if you refrigerate any leftovers, just heat up as you would do any hot beverage. OPTIONAL: Garnish with Lemon slices or Orange slices or both.

MAMA'S OLD-FASHIONED RUSSIAN TEA
Our instant Russian Tea mixes with Tang and instant tea powder are good, but nothing can compare to coming in to the wonderful aroma of this old-fashioned beverage as it simmers on the stove! It brings back special memories of Christmas time when I was a child and this was our "special holiday treat" during World War II.

NOT AUNT MARION'S RUSSIAN TEA
Me, personally I had a hard time finding a recipe for Russian Tea that wasn't a dry mix. Love the dry mix, but I wanted the before Tang version as well. Before instant tea. Found this one, finally. But I was really, really wanting my husband's Aunt Marion's recipe. She is departed now, & I think that we can honor those by using their recipe & let the recipe not die with them. Posted it here so should be easy for anyone to find that version, if interested. I think both sound good. YAY! Got what I call the Wet version, TWO recipes now for Russian Tea.

Steps:
- HOT SPICE JUICES: Bring the Water to a boil. Add the Sugar, Orange Juice, Lemon Juice, Cloves & Cinnamon. Boil about 5 minutes.
- BREWING THE TEA: Now bring the other Water to a boil in another pot, add your Loose Black Tea Leaves. Let it steep for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add your HOT SPICE JUICES s l o w l y to the brewed Tea until you reach your desired flavor & aroma. Sit back with friends & enjoy.
- NOTE: I found it odd that with all the other ingredients used that ground cinnamon was used instead of a cinnamon stick. But I figure that if anyone wants to use a cinnamon stick with this, it is acceptable. Personally, I thought ground cinnamon was rude to the loose tea leave considering how hard it can be for me to find black loose tea leaves. So they deserve the best treatment, is how I see it. If I use tea bags, then I probably wouldn't feel guilty using the ground cinnamon.
