The HEART Herbal Honey is made by infusing Raw Honey with dried Organic Rose Petals (Rosa damascena) and Hawthorn Berries (Crataegus monogyna).

The HEART Tea blend -- which should make about 40 cups of tea -- contains the following herbs:

2 parts Hawthorn leaf & flower (Crataegus monogyna)

2 parts Linden leaf & flower (Tilia sp.)

1 part Rosebuds (Rosa damascena)

1 part Hibiscus (Hibiscus sabdariffa)

The uplifting aromatic qualities of rose petals (Rosa damascena) makes this Rose Glycerite a delicious botanical treat for you, inside & out. Enjoy on its own or add the glycerite to herbal tea, spritzes, or smoothies. It can also be added to a homemade face or body wash recipe - as the glycerine is moistening and the astringency of the rose helps to tighten skin tissue.

Finally, my Grief Bitters uses Apple Brandy. Infused in the brandy are herbs known for their grief-alleviating and heart-lifting properties -- hawthorn berries and mimosa bark -- and a classic liver support -- dandelion root. The orange peel rounds out the flavor and pairs well with the apple brandy. *Recommended Dosage: Take 10-20 drops before a meal or whenever you need extra support to process grief. * Please note that this product contains Alcohol.*
