Raw herbs are known to be more efficacious but they all do a pretty fine job! Granules are simpler to prepare - and pulls, you can have them on the run!

Winter Chai 🫖☕️

The cooler weather is asking for warmer teas, and Chai is at the top of our list!

Winter (arriving next week) is a time of hibernation and rest, and is the perfect time to - of course - conserve energy with warming and nourishing brews.

A good time to pull the slow cooker out and throw in plenty of root veggies, warming spices and winter herbs, creating hearty stews and soups.
