Who knew you could make tea from grapefruit?

While it’s a hydrating, refreshing fruit, citrus is at its peak in winter, so a warming way to enjoy it is kind of brilliant.

And with cinnamon and lavender honey? It’s a tasty flavor combination you’re going to love.

WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

Besides predictable (but incredible) vitamin C, grapefruit also contains fiber, folate, potassium, and powerful antioxidants naringin and lycopene. Sip on that.
