latin Drimys Winteri[1]

Infusion

Perparation: Dry the Canelo leaves and afterwards tear them into pieces. Boil up water, then pour it over the leaves and allow them to steep in the water for about 10 minutes. The liquid may then be strained or the herbs otherwise removed from the liquid, creating an infusion. Unless the infusion is to be consumed immediately, it may then be bottled and refrigerated for future use.

Taste and Smell

The leaves have a spicy taste, similar to cinnomon. The longer you let the leaves steep in the water, the more essence is extracted making it spicier.

Properties

Very high in vitamin C. Anti-inflamatory, anti-reuhmatic,
