AIP Friendly Orange Cinnamon Infused Water
Staying hydrated gets a whole lot more exciting when your water tastes like a gentle, sun-warmed citrus hug. Sliced navel orange and a single cinnamon stick steep together in cold filtered water, slowly releasing a pale amber color and a fragrance that feels almost festive. Both ingredients are naturally compliant with autoimmune protocol eating, so there's no second-guessing labels or hunting down specialty products — just whole, simple food doing its thing. The longer it sits in the fridge, the more the flavors bloom, though pulling the cinnamon stick after four hours keeps the spice soft and approachable rather than overpowering. Poured over ice, it looks genuinely beautiful in a glass, making it an easy upgrade for everyday sipping or a pretty addition to a dinner table spread. It's the kind of small ritual that makes a restrictive eating phase feel a little more like a lifestyle and a little less like a sacrifice.
