  • 1 tbsp Manuka honey (this one is bangin’)
  • ½ tsp black or Himalayan pink salt
  • ¼ tsp fennel powder
  • 1/4 tsp licorice powder
  • 3 cups water
  • Ice Cubes (this is an Ayurveda NO-NO, so if you wanna’ be a purist, leave this one out, but I'm gonna’ be honest - in the dead of muggy Virginia summer, this girl breaks the no-ice rules)

Instructions:

  1. Steep the hibiscus flowers in boiling water for 20 minutes in 2 cups of water. Strain and let cool.

For this recipe, just let the sun do the steeping. For this recipe, just let the sun do the steeping. 🌞 Fill a glass jar with dried rose petals + fresh mint and let it infuse under the midday rays for a few hours. What do you get? A cooling, heart-opening, Pitta-pacifying potion that’s as beautiful as it is nourishing.⁠
⁠
Here’s a little bit about how these plant allies help support us during the warmer months of the year…⁠
⁠
🌹 Rose - The ultimate flower of the Divine Feminine:⁠
⁠
 • Cools the heat of both the body and our emotions (hi, Pitta spiciness 😅)⁠
 • Soothes the heart and uplifts mood with its subtle, floral sweetness⁠
 • Some studies have demonstrated that rose also has the potential to support the reproductive and nervous systems, and even impact dopamine levels⁠
⁠
🌿 Mint - The crisp, clarifying herb we all need in summer:⁠
⁠
 • Helps to clear excess heat and inflammation from the gut and skin⁠
 • Stimulates digestion without aggravating Pitta (exactly what we want!)⁠
 • Awakens the mind while calming overactive fire in the head + heart 🔥⁠
⁠
Sip this floral elixir all day long to stay hydrated, radiant and keep your Pitta chilled out. Your inner fire goddess will thank you. 🧘🏼‍♀️⁠

Okay, drop your best dinner-party answer to the question, “Ayur-what? What’s Ayurveda!?” below so we can share them the next time we need a Divine Feminine Ayurveda elevator pitch.👇🏼
Coconut Yogurt is so delicious and easy to make. I Coconut Yogurt is so delicious and easy to make. It is one of my favorite things to top onto mung daal (if using for savory dishes, exclude the vanilla and maple syrup) or to eat with berries and nuts! Plus, it helps keep the digestive system in check. I especially love it around the early spring/summer months. ⁠
⁠
Add coconut milk, probiotic capsules, vanilla bean and maple syrup to your shopping list—it’s the perfect time to make this cool, sweet recipe! 🥄
