Preparing Cinnamon Sore Throat Tea
Creating this comforting tea is as easy as 1-2-3. First, you’ll start by boiling the water, then introducing the flavors of cinnamon and ginger, if you choose to include it. After simmering for a few minutes, it’s time to sweeten with honey and add a splash of lemon juice. Before you know it, you’ll have a cup of soothing goodness ready in just about 15 minutes.
What you’ll need
Gather these items to make your soothing tea:
- 2 cups water
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 small piece of fresh ginger (optional)
If you’re short on any of these ingredients, feel free to swap out the fresh ginger for a pinch of ground ginger, or use agave syrup instead of honey for a vegan option.
