Tè alla Cannella Coreano

Tesoro, in a saucepan put the cinnamon sticks, water, and sugar together. No machine needed here — just your hands and a good pot.

Bring everything to a boil, then make the heat low and let it simmer for 20 minutes. The kitchen will smell like heaven, caro.

Take the pot from the fire and let it cool completely. Then put in the refrigerator to get cold — this is important, must be freddo.

When you serve, take out those cinnamon sticks and pour the cold tea into your glasses. Float the pine nuts on top — beautiful, no? (The pine nuts should float like little boats on the tea surface)
