The oatmeal drink has become very fashionable in recent years. It contains fiber, vitamins and minerals that improve digestion and contribute to liver and intestinal cleansing.
Oats also promote a good rest thanks to its relaxing effect that increases the level of well-being and facilitates sleep.

Let the oats soak for 7-8 hours the oat flakes, drain and grind together with the cup of water and the cinnamon. Add honey if you want to sweeten the drink.
