After the two minutes, I transferred the mixture to a cup and served it hot. At this point, you can add sweetener, but i enjoyed it alone. I love to drink it in the morning or evening before bedtime so that it calms my nerves and prepares me for the day's activities.
Combining these spices and lime, gives this drink a citrusy, spicy flavor that is good for our overall health.
It helps calm our nerves and ease stress.
Each of these ingredients has its own health benefits.
I truly enjoyed this simple yet powerful tea because of its great health benefits and natural warmth.
The lime balanced the taste of both the cinnamon and cloves, giving you that slight spicy, warmth and citrusy taste.
It isn't bitter, nor is it too sweet; it’s just perfect for everyone's taste buds.
I want to know, what drink do you love having when you're stressed? Do you have a favorite spice blend?
Thanks for reading till the end.
