Orange Peel Tea

This is a staple in the Caribbean kitchen. Dangling by the kitchen window or hanging by the side of the spice rack would be a strand of orange peel. Twigs Naturals has taken this tradition and delivered it to you in teabags using techniques to enhance its warm citrus flavour. 

The dried outer peel of the bitter orange has been used in medicine. According to the University of Michigan Health System, simmering 1 to 2 g of dried peel in 3 cups of water to make a tea might help relieve indigestion and heartburn. Orange peel has also been used to treat insomnia and as a laxative.
