Units
Scale
- Peel of 1 orange
- 1 knob fresh ginger, chopped (1 knob of ginger = about 1 tbsp chopped ginger )
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
- 4 cups water
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp fresh squeezed orange juice
Instructions
- Wash, slice, and peel orange.
- Cut orange rind into small cubes.
- Peel and chop ginger.
- Add water to pan and bring to boil.
- Once water is boiled, add the chopped orange rinds and ginger. Let mixture simmer for about 3 minutes.
- Add cinnamon, honey and fresh orange juice. Note: If you have a sweet tooth, feel free to add more honey and orange juice.
- Let mixture simmer for an additional 7-10 minutes. Note: For stronger flavor, let mixture sit for an additional 5 minutes. Any longer than that and I’ve found it starts to get bitter.
- Strain and serve.
