*Mother's Day Collection-Prepare Tea Concentrate: Bring 2 quarts fresh cold water to a boil in a saucepan (preferably glass) with cover. Remove from heat; immediately add 1 cup loose tea or 36 regular or 12 quart-size tea bags. Stir to immerse tea leaves. Cover; let stand 5 min. Strain into tea pot(s). When ready to serve, accompany teapot with a separate container of piping hot water. Pour 2-3 TB of tea concentrate into each cup then fill with the hot water. YIELD: About 50 servings. You would need about 1 quart milk,1 lb cube or granulated sugar and 3 or 4 sliced lemons for 50 servings of each. However,plan on purchasing less,for all guests will not take these.****Here's a good rule of thumb when your planning a large tea or reception: Three-fourths of those invited will attend; of these,about two-thirds will eat--in other words, plan food for about half of those invited.
