This is such a hug in a mug type of recipe! We hope you enjoy as much as we did.

(Serves: 1)

Ingredients:

• 1 gala or honeycrisp apple - diced

• 1 cinnamon stick

• 1 black tea bag

• 1 cup water

• Lemon juice (to taste)

• 1/2 tsp maple syrup

Directions:

In a saucepan, add diced apple, cinnamon stick, tea bag and water. Simmer on med-low heat for about 20 minutes.
