Apple Cinnamon Ginger Postpartum Tea

Bring 7 cups of water to a boil in a medium pot. Add the oats, ginger, cinnamon sticks, apples and a pinch of salt. Reduce the heat to low, partially cover the pot and simmer for about 30 minutes. Keep an eye on it as it cooks. Once the liquid has turned milky white and has a smooth, slightly creamy consistency, remove it from the heat and strain. Pour the strained tea into a glass jar or directly into your mug. (I love saving the cooked oats for oatmeal, they taste almost steel cut after soaking for this long.) Sweeten with honey to taste (I like a lot of it!!), finish with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon and drink warm.
