Thanks for sharing this wonderful Mexican recipe! I am a big fan of oats!
When you say whole oats, do you mean the small dried oat groat? Not the larger flakes, correct?
I can't wait to try this.

Put as much honey as you want to taste. I use very little because I am prediabetic. Hope it makes sense now. Good luck and I hope you enjoy it.
Peace, blessings,

OATMEAL TEA ( the correct way)
How to make oatmeal tea
Put the liter of water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. When it begins to boil add the 1 tbsp of oats or more if you like, (if you use more oats it will be more like cereal) and let boil for 3 minutes. After this time turn off the heat, cover and let rest for 2 minutes. Strain the resulting drink with the help of a sieve then add sugar or honey as you like and a tsp of cinnamon. Enjoy.
