- 4 cups water
- 9 orange-pekoe & black tea bags
- 3 cups cranberry-raspberry juice
- 12 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- In a large saucepan, add the frozen raspberries, and the water.
- Bring water to a boil, stirring to break up the raspberries.
- Reduce heat to a simmer, cover the pan, and simmer the berries for 10 minutes.
- Remove pan from the heat, strain and discard the raspberry seeds.
- Add the tea bags to the pan, cover the pan, and steep the tea for 1 hour.
- Remove the tea bags from the pan, and strain the tea once again.
- (This helps to remove any raspberries that are left in the pan).

- To the pitcher, add the sugar (the 1/2 cup, 1 tablespoon, and 1 teaspoon) and stir until sugar has dissolved.
- Add the raspberry-cranberry juice to the pitcher, and stir.
