Cinnamon Apple Tea

I tore open the packet and dumped the cinnamon and randered apple bits directly into the kettle. I allowed it to boil for two hours on medium heat allowing the smell to fill the room and then the home. I boilt it longer than could possible leave the brew edible. But edible was not the purpose.

All in all its not worth drinking. Watery, dry from the cinnamon and a mite bitter. But the smell it does the heart good. It's a few weeks short of even the Northern Spys ripening and there are no apples to be had any other way.

The Fujis and Braeburns are all imported from New Zealand and the cider was frozen last fall, only defrosted in the back of the grocery a week ago. It's a mild substitute but it reminds just fine.
