Perhaps because it is the darkest time of year, or maybe because the Northlands become so cold, we find a richness of traditions, rituals, and legends from this season to keep our hearts bright and warm. Whether stories told after supper by the light of the fire, or aromatic evergreens and candles, we welcome the return of the light with the Solstice and find renewed inspiration for the year ahead.
As herbalists, these occasions are easy to infuse with herbs. During this time of year, nothing beats herbal drinks to aid digestion after an indulgent holiday meal, or to brighten the mood and sprit on a dark gray winter day. Plants are our allies during this season.*
Herbal syrups are the easiest way to make delicious and fancy, bar-worthy drinks from the comfort of your own home. Make them ahead of time and keep them on hand to elevate any occasion into a simple, but special one. Find the recipe for a simple herb and fruit syrups for cocktails / mocktails here.

Taking a spin off the traditional Italian beverage, aperitifs are enjoyed before meals to increase digestive juices to thoroughly digest, and most importantly, enjoy and indulge in a meal.
Take ¼ tsp digestive bitters, then pour a bit of seltzer into the glass and cheers with family 15 or so minutes before a meal.
Our Digestive Bitter formulas are staples on our kitchen tables, our bags, and as always, in our everyday routines. Use them to aid proper digestion, or for occasional upset, like gas and bloating, occasional heartburn and indigestion, by sipping a small amount after a meal.*
May your holidays be warm, bright, and rich with herbs.
