Cinnamon Tea Recipe - The Coconut Mama
If you hate plain water, this is your new best friend. It’s zero sugar (unless you add honey). It’s caffeine-free (so you can drink it before bed). Perfect for those 3 a.m. coughing fits.
One more weird fact: ancient Egyptians used cinnamon in their embalming process. Yes, mummies. So you’re drinking something that preserved dead pharaohs. You’re basically a pharaoh now. Own it.
When not to drink it

Pregnant? Skip the big doses. A little is fine, but talk to your doc first. We’re about fun, not reckless.
