Cinnamon has great many benefits; lowers LDL cholesterol, may have regulatory effect on blood sugar, has anti-clotting effect, it is a great source of manganese, fiber, iron, and calcium, in addition to many other benefits. This hot tasty drink, which can be served all times a year, will give you all these benefits and at the same time great taste. Back in my country it’s a traditional drink which is served when visiting a new mommy, or in post-delivery baby showers. I love to have it any time a year really
You can prepare ahead, and when needed to serve, remove cinnamon sticks and heat till it boils. Add sugar garnish and serve DO NOT add sugar ahead, always at time of serving before adding the walnuts.

Huda: It looks great. I love cinnamon. You could also toast the walnuts, and give it just a twist with the flavor. Definitely I will try it. Jackie: Honey they should be just fine. I would do hazelnuts, myself. Just make sure they are finely ground.
Hi Charkie.. of course u can if u want, but to get the whole benifit of the drink, we don't toast the walnuts, cz as u know, the healthy way is to have nuts un-toated.. Enjot it :-) and for the hazelnut, i'm sure it'll taste great, but will it float u think as walnut does?? maybe pecans can be a trial as well.. Thanks allot Charlie for your comments.. I\ll be waiting for your feed back ;-)
Looks lov ely - I love cinnamon and all spices - I will try it after dinner tonight!
oo yea.. you should my dear.. It tastes sooo good .. the taste might differ from one pack of cinnamon stick to another, but it's always delicious drink at any time Enjoy :-)
That looks revolting
:-) .. it is :-) .. You should try it soon , it really tastes good if you like cinnamon ..
you think Hazelnuts will float on top like the walnuts ???????????????
Anyways dear, u can replace it with any other nuts u can eat.. just that walnuts and pecan go well with cinnamon and cinnamon recipes .. try Hazelnuts or almonds, see which u like more .. BUT don't miss trying this drink , it's so tasty .. just use a good curled cinnamon sticks..
ooo dear.. walnuts and pecans ??? that's new !! it's ok dear , lots of things are there in Food to eat :-D .. I'm not allergic to anything, but lots of things I don't eat: yougurt and all what's cooked in it when it's plain, cheese all kinds !! pickles, olives, hummus, broad beans.. and mayb some more i can't remember now :-D .. so it's ok dear, don't be sad for the walnuts :-D
I'm allergic to walnuts and pecans (which was a real bummer in New Orleans) so what do you suggest I substitute instead Huda?
