The original recipe said 4 servings!"
Place the fruit in a bowl and pour the tea over it. Cover it and let it set 6 to 8 hours (or overnight).
Heat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
After the fruit has finished setting, beat the two eggs and stir them into the fruit.
Add the rest of the ingredients, stirring well.
Put batter into two 8 x 4 inch greased and floured loaf pans.
Bake for 1 1/2 hours or until finished.
Remove from oven, cooling in pans for at least 10 minutes. Finish cooling on a wire rack.
