Digestive Support Iced Tea with Pineapple Weed & Dandelion Root
This is a delicious soothing beverage perfect for summer months. It contains amazing wild ingredients such as Dandelion Root & Pineapple weed. Dandelion Root is a natural diuretic that can help to reduce bloating. Pineapple Weed, a wild plant that’s from the same family as chamomile, is known for its calming effects on the stomach and its ability to ease digestive discomfort. Ginger is said to help relieve nausea and mint is renowned for its ability to relax the muscles of the gastrointestinal tract, which can help to ease symptoms of indigestion. We’ve had so much fun learning more about foragable ingredients in our local area and harvested the fennel fronds and mint from this recipe from our farm which always feels amazing! Enjoy!
