Why we love this recipe
Kapha-dominant types — who are prone to feeling cold, slow, and heavy — will benefit from the bitter, pungent, and astringent tastes in this herbal water recipe.
By adding individual spices and herbs, you can customize a ‘tea’ for yourself that will be the most balancing for your body and mind. Make a large batch and sip it throughout the day for smart hydration—stopping by 5-6 p.m. to avoid late night trips to the bathroom!
