Beat Holiday Bloating with this Quick and Easy Peppermint Cinnamon Tea

After almost three weeks of holiday parties, celebrations and fun, I am officially feeling the full effects of too much merriment. Not only do I feel more sluggish, I’ve also noticed that I’m dealing with more bloating and indigestion than usual. Considering all the rich holiday food I’ve been eating, that’s not surprising. But now it’s time to take control of my body again!

That’s why I started making a soothing Orange Naturals Peppermint Cinnamon Tea to enjoy every day before bed. With herbs that make it a tea for bloating, it has a delicious spicy flavour that’s perfect for a cold winter’s night.

The Orange Naturals Peppermint Tincture in this delicious drink is known for decreasing gas and bloating, which makes it perfect for sipping after a heavy meal. I decided to also add Orange Naturals Cinnamon since it helps regulate blood sugar, and my cravings for sugar spiralled out of control a bit during the holiday season. Finally, the touch of honey adds sweetness and also provides a boost to my immune system.

While I prefer to make this soothing tea for bloating with green tea for the added antioxidant benefits, it’s also especially good with herbal peppermint tea or Chai tea since the extra spice gives the tea even more soothing flavour. And in just a few days, I’ve noticed my sugar cravings aren’t as strong and my stomach is less bloated!

If you can’t find Orange Naturals tinctures, then peppermint and cinnamon extract also works well. Just remember to start with just half a teaspoon or so of extract, as it can be a bit stronger!
