Description
Inspired but the centuries old European tradition of herbal bitters, this distinctive botanical blend brings together a remarkable selection of 26 herbs, leaves, flowers and roots. Featuring plants such as wormwood, yarrow, nettle, birch, dandelion, St John's wort and rosehip, it offers a complex, earth and pleasantly bitter flavour that celebrates the diversity of nature.
Wonderfully versatile, the blend can be enjoyed as a traditional herbal tea or used to prepare your own homemade herbal bitters by infusing the botanicals in alcohol. The carefully balanced mixture combines aromatic herbs with naturally bitter plants, reflecting a long standing tradition of botanical preparations passed down through generations.
Preparation
As a tea: Add one teaspoon of herbal mix to a cup (250 ml) of hot water. Cover & leave to infuse for 3 minutes before serving. Consume 1-2 cups daily.
As homemade bitters: Place the contents of the 50g bag into a glass jar and add 750ml of 40% ABV alcohol. Store in a dark place for one month, stirring daily. Strain and transfer the finished bitters into dark glass bottles.
The medicinal plants and fruits that are used as ingredients for the products made by Măgură Monastery are collected from the spontaneous flora of the surroundings of the monastery, in the area of the Cindrel Mountains or are grown in the monastery's herb garden. The entire process, from picking, drying, shredding, preparation, packaging and labelling, is done by hand. Their recipes are their own and are based on old traditional and monastic remedies. The preparation processes aim to preserve the natural properties of the plants and fruits used.
