Our grandmothers were wise and practical women who cared deeply about their families’ health. That’s why it’s worth revisiting their time-tested traditions—one of which is boiling orange peels with cloves.
Orange peels are rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. These compounds help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, which are responsible for premature aging and some chronic diseases.
Cloves, on the other hand, are a good source of antioxidants, minerals, and essential oils. They have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and digestive properties.
Combining these two ingredients creates a warm, fragrant drink with a sweet and spicy flavor. As a result, this infusion can be a great natural option to enjoy the antioxidant, antibacterial, and digestive benefits of both ingredients.
