When the weather becomes unpredictable, the body often takes the hit. Your throat starts to itch, your nose gets stuffy, and chills begin to creep in. Before rushing to take medicine, there’s a simple way you can try at home by making your own herbal drink from cinnamon.

This spice with a sweet and warm aroma isn’t just delicious for cooking or baking, but also has natural benefits for relieving flu symptoms. Cinnamon is known for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that help the body fight infections.

How to Make a Warm Cinnamon Drink

The ingredients are simple and easy to find in your kitchen:

1 stick of cinnamon (or 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder)
1 teaspoon of pure honey
1 small piece of ginger (optional, for a stronger warming effect)
250 ml of hot water
1 slice of lemon (optional, for freshness and extra vitamin C)

Steps:

Boil water with the cinnamon stick and ginger for about 10 minutes.
Once the aroma comes out, turn off the heat and let it sit for a moment.
Strain the boiled water into a cup, add honey and lemon juice.
Stir well, and your herbal drink is ready to be served while warm.

Benefits You Can Feel

Cinnamon drinks can help warm your body from the inside, especially when you start to feel unwell. Their antioxidant content is also good for boosting immunity.

In addition, the distinctive aroma of cinnamon can have a calming effect. It is suitable to drink at night to help your body relax and sleep better.

Additional Tips

If you like a smooth sensation like latte, try adding a little warm milk or almond milk. The result: a warm drink that is smooth on the throat, soothing, and still healthy.
