1 Qty Apple
1/2 Tsp Ginger
1 Tsp Sugar

While the tea brews on medium flame, peel and chop the apple.
Add the apple and strained tea into a blender and blend the mixture until the apple completely combines into the tea.
Return the apple cinnamon tea mixture to the stove, and give it one last boil over high flame to attain a little froth.
Pour the mixture through a strainer into the cups.
Garnish the warm drink with cinnamon powder or sticks.

Recipe Notes

Milk of any variety can be used (toned, soy milk, almond milk etc).
Sugar can be substituted with healthier sweeteners like stevia, honey or jaggery.
Avoid using tart apples like Granny Smith, otherwise your tea might turn sour.
To make your tea frothier, try pouring the mixture from a significant height through the strainer.

More About Apple Cinnamon Tea Latte

Apples and cinnamon have been around mankind for ages. While the ‘forbidden fruit of wisdom’ is revered for its anti-oxidant rich properties, the tawny coloured spice is a prized medical remedy. Both apple and cinnamon are recognised as super-foods by researchers. Cinnamon is a known anti-inflammatory ingredient, which helps keep skin healthy and reduces the risk of heart disease. Apples, on the other hand lessen the risk of diabetes, prevent gallstones and detoxify your liver. Combined effects of apples and cinnamon include lowered risk of heart disease, reduced cholesterol levels, regulated insulin levels, lesser risk of cancer and improved immune system. Not just that, both these natural ingredients work miracles when it comes to sore throats and colds. So, maybe a cup of apple cinnamon tea latte a day can keep your doctor away.
