  1. I’ve never heard of cinnamon chips! Are they simply chopped up cinnamon, like cacao nibs are chopped cacao beans? The tea sounds lovely! Thanks so much for submitting the recipe to WW this week! 🙂

    • Hi Ricki 🙂 Yes, they are just chopped up cinnamon sticks. I buy them in bulk, they don’t cost as much as cinnamon sticks, so that’s really the only reason why I use them, plus it’s a lot easier measuring amount when I make herbal tea infusions (I use cinnamon chips a lot). Thanks for hosting!

  3. We make masala tea for soothing cold and cough. I haven’t heard of cinnamon chips. By the way adding thyme to tea is new to me. Thanks for sharing with Hearth and soul blog hop.

    • Oh I bet masala tea is wonderful! Cinnamon chips are just the stick broken into pieces, I find they are a bit less expensive.

  16. Such a comforting tea; I love the strong healing flavors!! Thyme is the best, and I love how you used it differently here, in a sweeter and a healing way. And… I just added those fine mesh strainers to my Amazon wish list. I’ve been needing them, as my old ones broke. Thank you for that link and recommendation. 🙂

  17. I LOVE this tea, Emily! <3 I have bookmarked the link last time when I saw you sharing this recipe on Facebook. I use cinnamon all the time in my masala chai tea, but I have never thought of using thyme in tea before. Thank you for sharing the great usage of thyme out of the culinary application. I can't wait to try this!

  20. This is a great idea! I knew that thyme had medicinal properties but didn’t ever think to make a tea from it. Thyme and cinnamon must be such a mellow, lovely, heartwarming cup of tea – just what you need when you’re feeling under the weather!

  23. I would have never thought to mix these two herbs in a drink. It was such a delightful drink. With all the health benefits too… Thank you for posting this 🙂
