Step 1
In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups water and 2 cinnamon sticks to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes until the water is deeply fragrant and lightly golden.
Step 2
While the water simmers, wash the lemon and slice it into thin rounds. Remove any seeds.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from heat. Add the lemon slices and 2 tablespoons honey, stirring until the honey dissolves completely.
Step 4
Pour the tea through a strainer into two mugs, or leave the lemon slices in for a stronger flavor. Serve hot, with an extra cinnamon stick in each mug if desired.
