Cinnamon Tea is a flavourful refreshing drink made by flavouring tea with cinnamon sticks while boiling. It is an alternate to the regular tea that is loved by all for its spicy flavour. This tea is my choice of tea at least once a week in a relaxed morning or evening.
Cinnamon Tea is a fragrant flavourful tea.I love trying out new tea varieties that how I tried this and love it so much.I am a fan of both vanilla and cinnamon in cakes and buns so why not in tea?!
I love to have tea in the evenings especially during winter.

Hi, love your recipes and I am always trying out your recipes. Most of the time it works out. I only have problem with the sweet recipes as I need to identify the type of sago and vellam used. Can you have a blog on that?
I am from Malaysia hence maybe different varieties available here.

I don’t suppose I could get away with using powdered cinnamon for this…? I almost feel bad for even asking, I feel like I’m sinning for even considering it, lol. I need to get to the store and get some cinnamon sticks.

The recipe sounds delicious but I’ve never seen tea powder. Where do you find it and would you recommend some brands that you prefer to use ?
Thank you
