Course Ingredient

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup honey
  • 1 cup filtered water
  • 2 cinnamon sticks

Instructions
 

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the honey, filtered water, and cinnamon sticks over medium heat.
  • Stir gently and bring the mixture to a soft simmer, allowing the ingredients to blend fully. If you're using raw honey and want to preserve its natural enzymes and nutrients, keep the temperature under 110°F.
  • Once the mixture is fully combined, let it gently simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the cinnamon to infuse.
  • Remove the pan from heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature. You can leave the cinnamon sticks in the syrup to steep for an additional 2–3 days for a stronger flavor.
  • Strain the syrup (if desired) and transfer it to a clean, airtight container such as a glass jar or syrup bottle.
  • Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Notes

if you’re using raw honey, do not heat over 110 F to ensure the healthy bacteria remains
substitute 2 cinnamon sticks with 2 tsp of ground cinnamon
