..in in the Pacific NW and its not a southern regional thing. I dont drink it now because of the sugar but we used to mix this up and give as gifts in ribbon-ed clad jars. I think it was called Russian tea. The sugar can be left out and added in the end to taste or use some other sweetener such as honey. Its esp good on a very cold day that may be hitting this weekend...
