Plant Alchemy - Into the Elixirs

al·che·my:

/ˈalkəmē/

noun: alchemy

1. the medieval forerunner of chemistry, based on the supposed transformation of matter. It was concerned particularly with attempts to convert base metals into gold or to find a universal elixir.
2. a seemingly magical process of transformation, creation, or combination. 

 

We thoughtfully formulated all the Botanical Lucidity elixirs by consciously choosing specific plants to go with others to create a synergy amongst the plants--otherwise a process known as plant alchemy.

 

Each of our elixirs have been formulated with herbs and spices that have incredible, diverse healing properties.

When it comes to blending two different plants that have different medicinal functions, we look at how their constituents complement and interact with each other to support healing in both body and mind. 

Another aspect of blending herbs aside from how they support each other medicinally is simply how they taste together. Some medicinal plants are bitter, sour, bland, and astringent, while others are much more pleasant and enjoyed by most. When formulating, we ensured that the taste was as enjoyable as how the plants in our elixirs make you feel.

With the importance of taste in mind, we committed to finding the best ratios between each ingredient. This process involved numerous personal taste-testings and conscious experimentation, which unveiled the powerful synergies and unique alchemy between each plant.
