Frequently Asked Questions About Clove water
What are the benefits of clove water?
Clove water may contain small amounts of compounds that leach from cloves, but it has not been shown to prevent or treat disease. Claims that it reliably improves digestion or provides major antioxidant benefits go beyond the evidence for this drink.
How do you make clove water?
Steep whole cloves in hot water, then strain them out before drinking. A shorter steep makes a milder drink, while a longer steep gives it a stronger, more pungent flavor; avoid adding clove essential oil.
Does clove water help lower blood sugar?
Clove water is not a proven way to lower blood sugar or manage diabetes. Do not use it in place of prescribed treatment, and ask your clinician before making it a regular drink if you take glucose-lowering medication.
Can clove water help with weight loss?
No, clove water does not cause weight loss by itself. Unsweetened clove water is a low-calorie drink, so it can replace a sugary beverage, but it does not burn fat or reliably suppress appetite.
Can you drink clove water every day?
There is no established daily dose for clove water. An occasional, lightly infused drink is different from repeatedly drinking a very strong brew; concentrated clove compounds can irritate the mouth or stomach.
Is clove water good to drink before bed?
Clove water has no established sleep-promoting effect and contains no caffeine. You can drink it in the evening if you like the taste, but a large drink close to bedtime may wake you for a bathroom visit.
What are the side effects of clove water?
Strong clove water may cause stomach discomfort, nausea, or irritation in the mouth, especially when consumed in large amounts. Clove essential oil is highly concentrated and should not be treated as interchangeable with a mild clove infusion.
Is clove water safe during pregnancy?
The safety of drinking concentrated clove water during pregnancy is not well established. If you plan to drink it regularly or use it for a health purpose, ask your doctor or dietitian first.
How long does homemade clove water last?
Keep homemade clove water covered in the refrigerator and drink it promptly rather than leaving it at room temperature. Discard it if its smell, taste, or appearance changes.
Should you boil cloves or steep them to make clove water?
Steeping whole cloves in hot water is a simple way to make clove water and gives you more control over its strength. Boiling them for longer produces a more intense flavor, not a proven increase in health benefits.

What is Clove water?
Clove water is an infusion made by steeping whole cloves in hot or cold water, then straining them out. It is simple to prepare at home, and a longer steep gives the drink a more pronounced, warming spice aroma.
Its flavour is pungent, gently sweet and warming. In places where cloves are used in everyday cooking, it may be sipped on its own or served alongside a meal; elsewhere, it can be an aromatic alternative to plain water or tea. Unsweetened clove water is very low in energy, with 2 calories per 100 g. If the spice tastes too strong, steep the cloves for less time, or serve the drink with a slice of lemon.
