Comments

This apple cinnamon water is so refreshing and delicious! I was hesitant about a cold apple cinnamon flavored drink at first, but I was very pleasantly surprised at the flavor of this water! I made the gallon (2 apples, 2 cinnamon sticks) and left it to marinate over night. I have made this water multiple times now at home. If you enjoy apple juice, this is a great juice substitute and will definitely cure the craving of apple juice. The cinnamon is not over powering and is more of an aftertaste, but in a good way. The main flavor profile I got was apple! I used cosmic crisp apples.
