Ingredients
- 5–7 pieces Whole Cloves (Use fresh, organic cloves)
- 2 cups Water (Filtered works best)
- 1 small piece Cinnamon Stick (Optional for sweetness)
Instructions
- Pour two cups of water into a small, clean saucepan.
- Add five to seven whole cloves and one small cinnamon stick to the water.
- Bring the mixture to a slow, steady boil over medium heat.
- Reduce the heat to a low simmer immediately after reaching a boil.
- Cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid to trap the essential oils.
- Simmer the liquid for five to seven minutes to complete your clove tea recipe for weight loss.
- Remove the saucepan from the stove and let it sit for one minute.
- Strain the warm liquid into a favorite mug using a fine-mesh sieve.
- Enjoy this clove tea recipe for weight loss while warm to maximize its soothing effects.
Notes
Always use a lid while simmering to prevent the volatile healing oils from evaporating with the steam. Limit the intake to one cup daily to respect the intensity of the spice on your digestive tract. Avoid boiling the cloves for more than ten minutes, as this can make the resulting tea excessively bitter.
