Thanks Patches - answered my question perfectly!

And we don't have anything like this in the UK. The nearest I can think of
is Apple Tea mix which you can buy [only] in Turkish shops (but isn't
spiced), or a "winter" spiced fruit squash [ = a liquid non-alcoholic
cordial to be diluted with water as you would do with lemonade]. Or fruit
teas (blechhh!) or possibly making my own version with apple juice from a
carton and spices (hardly instant).

If I could find a way to arrange payment, would anyone be good enough to
send me some? It's getting a bit chilly over here in the evenings and I'm on
the hunt for something nice and warming which isn't tea, coffee or hot
chocolate.
