CANELA (CINNAMON TEA)

The English drink tea, Americans like coffee, and when I grew up I loved canela! My stepmother (who I will refer to as my mom cuz she mothered us kids) would get this hot cinnamon drink going on any cold winters evening and me, my brother and sister would come in from a hard days play to enjoy a cup. 

 

It’s an easy drink to make. I enjoy a nice hot cup on a cool fall morning but I also like it over tea on a hot summer day. Try it and let me know what you think.

 

Yields 4 Servings


INGREDIENTS:

4 cups water

2 cinnamon sticks

4 teaspoons brown sugar

 

PREPARATION:

  • In a medium sauce pan bring water to boil.
  • Drop in cinnamon sticks.
  • Turn heat off and let cinnamon steep for 15 minutes.
  • Add sugar and enjoy a hot cup or on a hot day pour over ice.
