Pineapple Sunrise

Our newest batch of water kefir features organic pineapple juice with an infusion of organic Saffron Bitters – an incredibly complex blend of lemon peel, fennel seed, cardamom, angelica root, sarsaparilla root, lemon, grapefruit peel, turmeric root, eucalyptus, and saffron. It is wild how all these ingredients come together to form something completely new and intriguing– a functional feast for the palate!

“It’s not just what you eat, it’s what you assimilate,” as the old herbal adage goes. Optimal health depends on your body’s ability to digest, absorb, and utilize nutrients on a cellular level. Throughout history, bitter herbs played a large role in optimizing digestive function – the flavor of bitterness enhances the secretion of the body’s natural digestive juices, supporting the body to work the way it was designed.

While bitters have been relegated to the world of cocktails and mixed drinks, that is not where they began. They began in the gardens and tinctures of the old healers and in the wisdom passed down from one generation to the next, as the people continued to understand how to live in this world, to learn the attributes of the things growing around them. They were a part of the world, not apart from it. Just as we are today.
