Ingredients
- 4–5 pieces Whole Cloves (Must be whole, not ground.)
- 1.5 cups Water (Filtered water is ideal.)
- 1/2 stick Cinnamon Stick (Optional for added flavor.)
- 1 tsp Raw Honey (Only add after cooling.)
Instructions
- Pour the filtered water into a small, clean saucepan.
- Add the whole cloves to the cold water to allow them to swell before hitting the boiling point.
- Bring the water to a gentle boil over medium heat to begin the extraction process for your clove tea recipe for weight loss.
- Reduce the heat to a low simmer once the boiling starts.
- Cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid to trap the volatile oils.
- Simmer the liquid for five minutes to ensure the potency of your clove tea recipe for weight loss.
- Remove the pan from the burner and let it rest for another three minutes.
- Strain the finished liquid into your favorite mug carefully.
- Stir in the optional honey only after the tea has cooled for optimum benefits.
- Sip the clove tea recipe for weight loss while it remains comfortably warm for the best experience.
Notes
Use fresh whole cloves that are dark brown in color rather than old, faded ones for maximum therapeutic benefit. Allow the cloves to steep in the cooling water for a few extra minutes if you prefer a stronger, punchier flavor profile. Avoid boiling your liquid at a high, rolling boil as this can cause the delicate essential oils in your clove tea recipe for weight loss to evaporate prematurely.
