Introduction
Warm, comforting, and surprisingly powerful—hot milk with cinnamon isn’t just a bedtime drink your grandma swore by. Today’s women are rediscovering this creamy elixir for more than just its soothing qualities. From hormonal balance to skin health and digestion, cinnamon-infused milk is stirring up quite the buzz. But before you cozy up with a cup, here are seven unexpected benefits you should know—and a recipe to get you started.
Ingredients:
1 cup of whole or plant-based milk (almond, oat, or soy milk works too)
½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon (or 1 small cinnamon stick)
1 teaspoon of honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
A pinch of ground nutmeg or cardamom (optional, for extra flavor)
Directions:
Pour milk into a small saucepan and place over low-medium heat.
Stir in the ground cinnamon (or drop in the cinnamon stick).
Let the mixture warm up gently, stirring occasionally to avoid burning.
Once it starts to simmer lightly (but before boiling), remove from heat.
Stir in honey or sweetener of choice, and add nutmeg or cardamom if desired.
Strain if using a cinnamon stick. Pour into your favorite mug and enjoy warm.
