Why people make this water

Nourilo loves how everyday this one is — apples are cheap and plentiful, and the skin in particular is full of good things, traditionally regarded as friendly to the heart and blood vessels. On a hot day, pairing apple with sugarcane and simmering it as a tea is a gentle way to cool down, encourage saliva and ease dryness, and it is often sipped to help the lingering dryness after a cold has mostly passed.
