Ingredients
1 tablespoon raw honey
1 teaspoon Ceylon cinnamon ground
200 ml warm water not above 40 degrees Celsius
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice (optional)
1 pinch turmeric (optional)
1 pinch black pepper (optional, for turmeric activation)
Instructions
1. Boil 200 ml of water and let it cool for 3 to 4 minutes until it reaches approximately 38 to 40 degrees Celsius.
2. In a glass or ceramic mug, add raw honey and Ceylon cinnamon together and stir into a small paste with a wooden spoon.
3. Pour the warm water slowly over the paste and stir until fully dissolved.
4. Add lemon juice, turmeric, or a pinch of black pepper if using the brain health or immunity variation.
5. Drink on an empty stomach 30 minutes before breakfast for best absorption results.
Notes
Always use Ceylon cinnamon not cassia for daily use due to lower coumarin content.
Never add honey to water above 40 degrees Celsius as it destroys the beneficial enzymes.
Pair with meals like plain oatmeal, Greek yogurt, or smoothies for a complete morning routine.
Store pre-mixed honey cinnamon paste in a sealed glass jar at room temperature for up to 6 months.
