2 servings
- 2 rooibos tea bags
- 1 cup water
- 1 tsp orange zest (from about ½ orange)
Ingredient noteThis recipe uses the peel rather than the juice, and peel has very little of the acid that brings on reflux. The small amount here is likely fine for most people with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid orange peel, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 ½ cups milk
- ⅛ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
For serving
- pinch of ground cinnamon, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
