4 servings
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 4 large navel oranges, peeled and segmented (about 3 cups flesh)
- 2 cups cold water
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
Ingredient noteAIP restricts added sweeteners, but small occasional amounts of unrefined maple syrup are accepted on the protocol; the ~1 1/2 teaspoons per serving here likely stays within that limited allowance. If you prefer to always avoid maple syrup, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ tsp fine salt
For the cinnamon tea
- 1 cup water, for the cinnamon tea
For serving
- ice, for serving
- orange slices or wedges, for serving (optional)
