OK, now, this recipe is written for the "Mr. Coffee Ice Tea Pot" and it works really good with it. (I never knew what to do with the thing!)
For those of you that don't have one, you may have to adapt this recipe for use with other machines... or your own way for making iced tea...

Slice the apples into thin slices and remove the cores and seeds... place of the slices in the steeping pot of tea maker...
Mix the cinnamon, ginger and the sugar until it is uniform in color... then sprinkle it over the apple slices in the steeping pot...
Follow the directions to make Iced tea that came with the machine... add the teabags to the steeping pot on top of the apples...
Add the remaining apple slices to the pitcher on top of the ice... assemble the machine and the pitcher and turn it on...
Add the apple slices from the steeping pot to the pitcher when the tea is done along with more ice to fill the pitcher... stir vigorously and serve...
