Ingredients
Ground cinnamon bark.
Ground Korintje Cinnamon (sometimes called “Cassia Bark Cinnamon,” or "Cinnamomum cassia,") is derived from the inner bark of a tropical Evergreen Lauryl tree that is native to Burma. Cinnamon is one of the oldest known spices, mentioned in the Bible and used in ancient Egypt for beverage flavoring and medicine. Its popularity spread to China where it currently is widely produced. While most familiarly used in baked goods, the flavor is also popular in roasting meats, brewing beverages and adding to savory sauces.
The essential oils in the bark of cinnamon have been found to aid circulatory ailments, boost brain function and improve colon health. It is suggested that simply adding cinnamon to a daily diet can help reap the benefits from this popular spice. It is also frequently infused into soaps, oils and perfumery for aromatherapy treatments.
