Cinnamon tea is not only one of the most soothing and aromatic drinks on cold days, but also a true miracle of nature! A cup of hot tea is rich in antioxidants and has a fantastic effect on both body and mind.

Why should you drink it regularly?

Supports digestion: Relieves bloating, soothes the stomach and stimulates the production of digestive juices.

Helps regulate blood sugar levels: Cinnamon is known to stabilize blood sugar levels, thereby reducing appetite and feelings of hunger.

Strengthens the immune system and has anti-inflammatory properties: It is rich in valuable antioxidants that strengthen the body’s natural defenses against infections.

Refreshing and warming: Stimulates blood circulation, making it an ideal choice for anyone with a cold or in need of a natural boost of energy.

How to make the perfect cinnamon tea

For the best flavor and optimal effect, use whole cinnamon sticks instead of ground cinnamon (this will prevent the tea from becoming too thick).

Ingredients:

1–2 whole cinnamon sticks (preferably Ceylon cinnamon)
4–5 dl water
Optional: 1 slice of fresh lemon, 1 teaspoon of honey, or a small piece of fresh ginger
Preparation:

Put the water and cinnamon sticks in a small saucepan and bring to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 10–15 minutes. The longer the tea steeps, the more intense and sweet its flavor will be.

Remove from heat, discard cinnamon sticks and let cool slightly.

Add honey and lemon to taste (add honey to warm tea to preserve vitamins!).
