Step 1: Prepare the Apples
Wash the apples thoroughly. Cut them into thin slices, keeping the peel on for extra flavor and nutrients.
Step 2: Boil Water
In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil.
Step 3: Add Apples and Cinnamon
To the boiling water, add the sliced apples and the cinnamon stick. Lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
Step 4: Incorporate Herbs
Add the dried chamomile flowers and peppermint leaves to the pot. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5-7 minutes, enabling the flavors to meld.
Step 5: Strain the Tea
Take the pot off the heat and strain the tea to remove the apple slices, herbs, and cinnamon stick.
Step 6: Sweeten (Optional)
If you like your tea sweet, add honey or maple syrup to taste, stirring until fully dissolved.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy
Serve the apple tea warm, pouring it into cups. Alternatively, let it cool down and serve it over ice for a refreshing cold drink.
