DAD’S TÉ DE CANELA by Ariel Nayotl When my father worked in the food industry, he always came home late. But, even though it was late, he would still make tea for us to drink so we could chat about how dinner service went. Té De Canela helps boost your immune system, makes you strong, and refreshes you enough to return to work the next day. This recipe is dedicated to my father because he is the reason why I am in the food industry and love working in the culinary world. I always look forward to making this tea to continue another day.
