With its warm, earthy flavor, cumin tea is known to help alleviate bloating, indigestion, and other digestive discomforts. Cumin seeds, which are packed with essential oils and antioxidants, work wonders in calming the digestive system and supporting overall wellness. In this article, we will explore the simple recipe for preparing cumin tea and highlight its potential health benefits.
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 cup water
1 teaspoon honey (optional)
1-2 slices of fresh ginger (optional)

Instructions:
Toast the Cumin: Begin by gently roasting the cumin seeds in a dry pan over low heat for 1-2 minutes until they release a fragrant aroma. This step helps to enhance the flavor of the tea.
Prepare the Tea: In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add the toasted cumin seeds (and ginger if using) to the boiling water. Let it simmer for 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
Strain and Serve: Once the tea has brewed, strain the liquid into a cup to remove the cumin seeds and ginger pieces.
