Honey cinnamon tea is a herbal tea made by steeping honey and cinnamon sticks or ground cinnamon in hot water. The mixture of honey and cinnamon creates a sweet and spicy flavor.
Both honey and cinnamon are full of antioxidants and have anti-inflammatory features, so honey cinnamon tea has many health benefits. It is used as a natural remedy for various health problems. In addition, it supports the immune system and improves body resistance against cold weather.
Honey cinnamon tea is traditionally brewed using a single teapot, either by steeping or simmering in hot water. However, the recipe below describes how to make honey cinnamon tea using a double tea kettle. Making honey cinnamon tea in a double tea kettle yields more flavorful tea warmer for a longer time than traditional single teapot brewing.

Ingredients
4 cinnamon sticks or 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
10 cups water, filtered or bottled, if tap water is of poor quality
2-4 tablespoons honey (to taste)
Directions
Add the water to the lower kettle and boil it on the stove.
Once the water is boiled, add cinnamon and honey to the upper teapot and pour almost 4 cups of boiled water over it. If your teapot is larger and you would like to make more tea, increase the amount of honey and cinnamon accordingly.
Add more water into the lower kettle, put it again on the stove to boil, and place the upper teapot over it, closing its lid.
Once the water is boiled, wait 10 minutes for the cinnamon to release its flavor into the water.
Once the honey cinnamon tea is ready, prepare the tea cups. Pour the infusion in the upper teapot into the cups by using a strainer. If you like lighter tea, pour the infusion halfway and then add boiled water to it from the lower kettle.
Your honey cinnamon tea is ready.
Serve it to your loved ones and enjoy!
