Hot Cinnamon Tea
Hot Cinnamon Tea - Teatime for cold, gray days—not the usual British preparation

Nutritional values
The spicy soul warmer is a hot tip against bad mood in the grey season. Cocoa has a mood-lifting effect thanks to the amino acid tryptophane and the active ingredient theobromine.
Roiboos tea, in contrast to black tea, does not contain any stimulating substances (theine), so the cinnamon flower tea in this preparation variant is also suitable for children or as an evening tea.

Preparation steps
Combine the Ceylon cinnamon, black tea, cardamom, and 1 3/4 cups of water in a small pot. Bring to a boil and let simmer over low heat for 8-10 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the milk in another pot. Whisk in the cocoa, then beat the mixture with a milk frother or a whisk until foamy.
Pass the cinnamon tea through a strainer into cups or mugs and add sweetener to taste. Spoon the cocoa foam on top and serve immediately.
