To make tea with clove, steep a few whole cloves in hot water, then strain and drink. You can also add cloves while brewing black tea; remove them before serving so the flavor does not become overpowering.
Tea with clove made only with cloves and water is caffeine-free. If you brew the cloves with black or green tea leaves, it contains caffeine from those leaves; the amount depends on the tea and steeping time.
Tea with clove has a warm, aromatic, slightly sweet and pungent flavor. A few whole cloves give a gentler taste, while a longer steep or ground cloves can make it much stronger and more intense.
Tea with clove may feel soothing after a meal, but it is not a proven treatment for indigestion. Its warm, spicy flavor can be pleasant, yet persistent or severe digestive symptoms need more than a cup of tea.
No, tea with clove does not directly cause weight loss or burn body fat. Unsweetened tea can replace a sugary drink, but adding sugar or honey adds energy without giving the drink a special fat-loss effect.
Most people can enjoy tea with clove in moderation as a regular drink. Avoid making it excessively strong or using large amounts of cloves, which may irritate the mouth or stomach in some people.
Yes, tea with clove can be brewed with either black or green tea. Black tea gives it a fuller, more tannic flavor, while green tea tastes lighter; both versions contain caffeine from the tea leaves.
Yes, you can refrigerate brewed tea with clove in a covered container and drink it within a day or two. Strain out the cloves first, since leaving them in can make the flavor increasingly strong and bitter.
Strong tea with clove may cause stomach discomfort or irritation in the mouth. Clove can also interact with blood-thinning medicines, so people taking those medicines should ask their clinician before drinking it regularly.
The safety of drinking concentrated tea with clove during pregnancy is not well established, and culinary amounts are not the same as a strong brew. Ask your healthcare professional before making it a regular drink.

Tea with clove is made by steeping whole cloves in hot water, either on their own or with black tea. The cloves lend the drink a warm, fragrant, slightly sweet spice note. Recipes vary: some keep it as a simple infusion, while others add it to a spiced tea blend.
Serve it hot, plain or with lemon; honey or milk can be added to suit your taste. In places where spiced teas are familiar, it fits naturally alongside breakfast or an afternoon break, and it is also easy to make at home elsewhere. Unsweetened, it is very low in calories. Start with a small amount of clove, since its flavour can quickly dominate the cup.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
