Immune boosting cinnamon thyme tea is one of my favorite go-to natural remedies.
I love it! I don’t get sick that often, but when I start to feel a little off, this tea is a must.
Thyme is an amazing herb! Did you know it helps support the immune system?
Most people think of thyme as a culinary herb, but it has medicinal properties too.
Thyme is naturally antimicrobial and is known for helping prevent recurrent infections.
Cinnamon is known for it’s warming effect, which is really beneficial when you are not feeling so well.
It’s sweet and spicy and adds a wonderful flavor. Cinnamon aids in digestion too.
Give this natural remedy a try when you’re in need of giving your immune system a little boost.

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!
I love this, what a great idea! How do you come up with all of these herbal remedies? You’ve inspired me to create a natural remedies Pin board so I can start collecting these great ideas 🙂
Thanks Debbie! I have done lots of research over the years, lots of reading, plus tips from my midwives, Holistic Mom Network members, etc. It’s another area that I’m very passionate about. Are you on Pinterest? I just signed up, I LOVE it! If you are, I want to follow you as well.
Wow! Thanks! My friend, Emily, and I are in Melaleuca and love it, and we are also very concerned with all the GMO products being consumed by ignorant consumers. We are on a Mission to help others with their health and healing! I am not active on Pinterest, but you are welcome to friend me on facebook : Deborah G Vierow Brownfield! Thank you for your willingness to share!
Yes, so important to keep spreading the word. I’m with Young Living, but that’s great that you’re working towards educating people and helping them with moving towards a healthier, natural path. 🙂
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.
We needed this last week when we were all sick. Thank for sharing it at Allergy-Free Wednesdays. We hope to see you back again this week.

I hope you all are feeling better! And thanks for hosting. Take care.
Tea is very popular in our house, but never more than we are under the weather. This sounds incredibly soothing. I’m bookmarking it for future use.
Thanks Alea 🙂 It’s really soothing, and yummy too, I enjoy drinking it even when I’m not feeling under the weather.
This is a wonderful fat burning tea too…..very refreshing….I am using this for a number of years
Thank for sharing the recipe. I have not heard of cinnamon chips before. But, I tried to make this tea on the last weekend when i was sick. It is really effective to me. Adding thyme to tea is new to me.
Very healthy remedy indeed I signed up too Thanks
My husbands grandma would make this for him when he was a child in Lebanon. He’s brewing me a cup now to help w my cold.
I signed up too!
Such a lovely memory to have. 🙂 I hope you feel better soon! And thank you for the sign up Patty.
So many people around me are sick, so I definitely need this! I have to checkout cinnamon chips. Never tried them before.
I know, so much nastiness going around. Cinnamon chips are basically broken up pieces of cinnamon sticks, you can usually find them in bulk online. My local natural foods co-op has them in bulk too.
This time of year, it’s nice to have as many thing in your arsenal as possible!! And this one looks super easy!
Yes! So true! 🙂
Oh wow, thyme and cinnamon sounds like such an interesting combo!
It’s surprisingly delicious 🙂
It’s a little chilly here today. I could use a cup of that!
The weather has been a bit odd for CA. I feel like we’ve had clouds for days!
Thank you for sharing this immune boosting tea recipe. I would love to share it with my clients.
Thanks! 🙂 I hope you get to try some.
The simplest things are the best medicine. Love this soothing tea!
So true! xo
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. 🙂
I love that you love thyme and those bold flavors the way I do. 🙂 Oh good! I’m glad it was here for you then. They’re great strainers.
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!
You’ll love the thyme! I know you appreciate medicinal things – thyme is such a great one. 🙂
Beautiful, natural, simple. Everything I like my home remedies to be! This is a great idea.
Yes! Me too! 🙂 Thanks Monique!
I’ve actually never made tea from scratch before so I’m really looking forward to trying this recipe 🙂
I hope you get to make some Mira! 🙂
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!
It’s a really lovely flavor, I hope you get to try some. 🙂
Never tried thyme and cinnamon together but it sound wonderful!
Can you use fresh thyme?
You could 🙂 I’m not sure the exact measurement, but fresh thyme would work just as well and will obviously be fresher and more potent than dried. I hope you get to make some!
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 🙂
