Teaching Herbalism Through Tea Craft
I created this blend with the intention to make a delicious turmeric brew that could also be easily absorbed by the body. I also considered the question of “why is someone drinking this?” My best guess is to access some of the well known and abundant benefit of turmeric. Some of the most well known being: liver tonic, anti inflammatory, digestive system tonic, and immune system nourisher. Through that, I added each ingredient with purpose.
TURMERIC ROOT- I added this because, well,… its the major focus in this blend due to it being amazing! Turmeric has been hailed for centuries in the Ayurvedic tradition for a huge variety of benefits such as those mentioned above.
SHREDDED COCONUT- I added coconut since turmeric is best absorbed with a fat carrier (called lipid soluble). I also chose this because it adds such a nice body and flavor to tea.
LICORICE ROOT- I added licorice because of its natural sweetness as well as its immune system benefits complimenting those of turmeric and its soothing properties to the digestive system to also be an additional support.
GINGER- Not only does ginger taste wonderful in here, but it adds a synergistic boost to the digestive and anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric.
FENNEL- Fennel adds such a lovely, sweet and aromatic complexity to this brew but it also enhances the efficacy of turmeric as a digestive tonic.
BLACK PEPPER- The well know “potentiator” herb for turmeric by enhancing absorption.
GRAINS OF PARADISE- An incredible and complex flavor component but also for its added digestive and anti inflammatory benefits being taught to us by West African elder herbalists.
