For 4 servings
Measure 8 tablespoons of Tang powder and add it to a large pitcher (at least 1.5 quarts).
Pour about 1/2 cup of the cold water into the pitcher. Stir vigorously for 30 seconds to create a smooth, concentrated paste. This prevents clumps from forming.
Gradually pour in the remaining 3.5 cups of cold water while continuing to stir until the powder is completely dissolved, which should take about 1 minute.
Fill four glasses with ice cubes. Pour the prepared Tang over the ice and serve immediately for a refreshingly cold drink.

Tang is fortified with Vitamin C, an essential antioxidant that supports the immune system, helps in the repair of body tissues, and aids in the absorption of iron.
As a flavored beverage, Tang can encourage increased fluid intake, which is crucial for maintaining proper hydration, regulating body temperature, and supporting overall bodily functions.
A standard serving of Tang (made with 2 tablespoons of powder) typically contains around 90-100 calories, primarily from sugar. Always check the nutrition label on your specific product for the most accurate information.
Tang is a sugar-sweetened beverage and should be consumed in moderation. While it is often fortified with Vitamin C and sometimes other vitamins, its high sugar content means it is more of a treat than a health drink.
No, traditional orange-flavored Tang is caffeine-free, making it a suitable beverage for all ages.
While Tang is designed to be a cold beverage, the powder will dissolve in hot water. However, it is not typically consumed warm. For a cold drink, it's best to use cold water.
Store any leftover prepared Tang in a covered pitcher in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir well before serving again as some settling may occur.
Tang was used on early NASA manned space flights, starting with the Gemini program in 1965. Its powdered form made it easy to transport and mix in zero gravity, and it helped make the onboard water more palatable for the astronauts.
