Description
This comforting Cinnamon Sore Throat Tea is a soothing beverage made with warm milk, cinnamon, ginger, and honey. It’s easy to prepare using either the stovetop or microwave and helps alleviate throat irritation with its warm spices and natural sweetness.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup milk (use your favorite dairy or plant-based milk)
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon powdered ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon mild tasting honey
Instructions
- Heat the Milk: Place the milk in a small saucepan and heat on low heat until it is hot but not boiling. Heating gently ensures the milk doesn’t scorch.
- Add Spices and Honey: Stir in the ground cinnamon, powdered ginger, and honey into the hot milk until the ingredients are well mixed and smooth.
- Sip and Soothe: Sip the warm drink slowly to soothe your sore throat, enjoying the comforting flavors and warmth.
- Microwave Option: Alternatively, place all ingredients in a microwave-safe cup and heat on high for 1 to 1½ minutes, or until hot (microwave times may vary). Stir well before sipping.
Notes
- The spices may settle to the bottom as you sip; swirl the cup gently to keep the flavors mixed.
- Using thinner milks may result in a spicier flavor compared to thicker, creamier milks.
- You can use any brand or type of milk according to your preference, including plant-based options.
