Te De Canela
From cinnamon007 12 years agoIngredients
- 4.25 cups water shopping list
- 3 three inch Ceylon cinnamon stick shopping list
- 1 tsp. fresh lime juice shopping list
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.
