Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • 750 ml water (3 cups)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 120 g grated panela (\u00be cup)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 2 cinnamon sticks<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 medium orange, sliced<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 small lemon, sliced<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 20 ml lemon juice (1 tablespoon)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 2 g whole cloves (6 cloves)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Preparation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Make the infusion,<\/strong> place the water, panela, cinnamon sticks, and cloves in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the panela has fully dissolved.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Add the aromatics,<\/strong> add the orange and lemon slices, reduce the heat, and simmer for 8 minutes so the spices and citrus flavor the drink without making it bitter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Balance the flavor,<\/strong> stir in the lemon juice and taste the drink. Add a little more panela only if you prefer a sweeter canelazo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Serve hot,<\/strong> remove the cinnamon sticks and cloves. Pour the canelazo into heatproof cups and garnish each serving with an orange or lemon slice.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Chef\u2019s tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Do not simmer the lemon slices for too long, since the peel can add bitterness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Use real panela for the traditional caramel-like flavor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Keep the drink over very low heat if you plan to serve it gradually.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Strain it before serving for a cleaner presentation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Traditional variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Across Colombia\u2019s Andean regions, families adjust the amount of panela, cinnamon, and citrus according to local custom. Some versions use only orange, while others include lemon for a brighter flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        How to serve<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Serve canelazo piping hot in small cups or mugs. It is especially enjoyable on rainy afternoons, during family gatherings, and alongside relaxed conversations in cool weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Recommended pairings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Almoj\u00e1banas<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Pandebono<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Cheese arepas<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Yuca bread<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Colombian bu\u00f1uelos<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
