Easy Cinnamon Tea
Cinnamon tea is a warm and slightly spicy drink that's loaded with antioxidants! It's perfect for cold & flu season, or anytime you want to warm up with a cozy drink.
Ingredients
- 2 ceylon cinnamon stick
- 2 cups water
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the cinnamon sticks and water. Bring the pot to a boil, then lower the heat and gently simmer for 15 minutes.
- Remove the large cinnamon sticks with a slotted spoon or fork, then pour the tea through a strainer to catch any small pieces that might have flaked off.
- Serve warm, with fresh lemon juice and honey, if desired. Leftover tea can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days if you want to make extra for later! You can serve it cold or reheated.
Notes
- Nutrition information is automatically calculated and doesn't take into account that the cinnamon sticks are strained out. So, this is just a rough estimate, and not a guarantee.
- Feel free to simmer the cinnamon with other extras, such as sliced ginger, cloves, or fresh rosemary.
