Ingredients
- 1 whole Apple (medium, preferably sweet variety like Fuji or Honeycrisp)
- 4 cups Water
- 1 whole Cinnamon stick
- 1 inch piece Fresh ginger (peeled and sliced)
- 1 piece Chamomile tea bag
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
Directions
Step 1
Wash the apple thoroughly, then core and slice it into thin wedges. No need to peel it as the skin adds extra flavor and nutrients.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the water, apple slices, cinnamon stick, and sliced ginger.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Once it starts simmering, lower the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from heat and add the chamomile tea bag. Cover the pan and let it steep for 5 minutes.
Step 5
Remove the chamomile tea bag, cinnamon stick, and ginger slices using a slotted spoon or strainer. You can leave the apple slices in the tea if desired, or remove them for a clearer tea.
Step 6
Taste the tea and, if desired, stir in honey or maple syrup for sweetness and/or lemon juice for brightness.
Step 7
Pour the tea into mugs and serve warm. Garnish with a fresh apple slice or a twist of lemon peel for presentation, if desired. Relax and enjoy!
