You will need to use a ceylon cinnamon stick.

You can find it at Mexican grocery stores.

You will find it labeled as “canela” which is the spanish word for cinnamon.

Put the water, orange peel, cinnamon stick and whole cloves in a pot.

Bring the water to a boil over medium high heat.

The tea will be very hot so let it cool just a bit before serving.
