Delicious Cinnamon Tea

I love this tea hot and cold. I also love the way my house smells so cinnamony while and after I make the tea!

Ingredients:

12 cups of water
6-7 large ceylon cinnamon sticks

Method:

Dump cinnamon sticks in water in a pot. Bring the water and cinnamon sticks to a slow boil. Turn heat off. The longer you leave the cinnamon sticks in the water as it cools, the more cinnamony it will be. Experiment!

To make Cinnamon Tea Chai flavored:

Cheesecloth Chai Tea sachet ingredients:

6 cracked open cardamom pods with inside scraped out
2 tsp alspice
1 tsp nutmeg
2 Tbsp whole cloves
3 Tbsp black tea
1 Tbsp peppercorns

Method:

After your cinnamon tea starts to boil, turn heat off and put the Chai sachet into the cinnamon tea.  Cover and let steep from anywhere to 5 - 10 minutes or more depending on how strong you like it.
