Ingredients

How to make it

  • Place water into a pot.
  • Break the Cinnamon sticks into small pieces.
  • Bring the water to a boil.
  • Let boil for approximately 3-5 minutes and remove from heat. 
  • Let it steep/rest for additional 2 minutes, or to taste based on strength desired. 
  • Strain the tea through a very fine sieve or cheesecloth to ensure none of the small slivers of cinnamon end up in the cup.
  • Add one (4) teaspoon of lime juice. Do not use lemon juice as the taste will be different and sweetness of Cinnamon will not come out if you use lemon.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Yield: 4 cups
  • Notes: 
  • You always add an extra ¼ cup of water because the water evaporates when you boil it leaving you with exactly 4 cups
  • The ratio of cinnamon to water is 3/4 (75%) of a 3 inch sticks. If you make 2 cups that means you need to put in 1.5 sticks. If you make 6 cups that means you use 4.5 sticks.
