Jem's Digestive Blend

An excellent tea for before, during, or after eating. This blend soothes the belly and relaxes the body. The spiciness of Ginger root offers warmth while the aromatics of Cardamon, Fennel seed, and Orange peel gently stimulate digestion. Dandelion root jumps in with the ever important bitter notes, reminding us of how bitter balances sweet. Marshmallow root smooths things over with its demulcent properties, providing slippery support to internal tissues. Lastly the sunny petals of Calendula flowers round out the blend with a sprinkle of astringency to soothe any gut inflammation. 

Community Herbalist Notes: 

I love this blend as an ally to help me digest food as well as people, places, and experiences. In particular I lean on the presence of the three roots—ginger, dandelion, and marshmallow—they offer me grounding energy and downward motion after a long day. Jem’s Digestive Blend can be brewed as a hot infusion or even gently simmered on low heat for 10-15 minutes to draw out the potency of the denser roots and seeds.
