Cinnamon Tea is a warm, comforting beverage made by simmering cinnamon sticks or ground cinnamon in water. Known for its soothing properties and naturally sweet-spicy flavor, this tea is not only delicious but also packed with antioxidants. Perfect for cozy mornings, relaxing evenings, or boosting immunity during cold and flu season.

Ingredients

• 1 cinnamon stick (or 1 tsp ground cinnamon)

• 1½–2 cups water

• Honey or maple syrup, to taste (optional)

• Lemon slice, for added flavor (optional)

Directions

• In a small saucepan, bring water to a boil.
• Add the cinnamon stick or ground cinnamon.
• Reduce heat and simmer for 10–15 minutes.
• Strain into a cup (if using ground cinnamon, let it settle or use a fine mesh strainer).
• Add honey or lemon if desired, and enjoy warm.

Notes

• Use Ceylon cinnamon for a milder, sweeter taste and lower coumarin content.
• You can steep other spices like ginger, cloves, or cardamom for variation.
• Enjoy it hot or cold — it makes a refreshing iced tea too.
