Cozy Herbal Broth

Our Cozy Herbal Broth Mix is a wintertime favorite! Packed full of vitamins and delicious herbs, this mix is both perfect for a single-serve cup or in soup!

We make our Cozy Herbal Broth almost weekly, especially when the weather gets cold. It has been great to sip on when we are feeling ill or can’t keep food down. However, our favorite way to enjoy this broth mix is in ramen! Ditch those flavor packets (or combine them!) and give our Cozy Herbal broth a try. It already has all the salt you need and its umami flavor from the shitake mushrooms and sea lettuce makes the perfect ramen broth.

We are often told, “I made this at home and it didn’t turn out as good as the sample I tried!” The key to making it like we do is the steep time! The longer you simmer the broth, the deeper the flavors will become.

Lavender Lemonade

Our Lavender Simple Syrup Mix is one of the most popular items we carry. We typically make lavender lemonade with this mix and it is what we usually offer as samples at markets. There are so many things you can do with our Lavender Simple Syrup Mix but today I am going to share with you are lemonade recipe!

When making lemonade with our simple syrup mixes there are two main steps you need to follow:

  1. Prepare the simple syrup
  2. Combine simple syrup with water and lemon juice

A Little Magic

One of the cool things about our Lavender Simple Syrup Mix is that the syrup starts off blue and when you add something acidic (like lemon juice!) it will turn purple!

I always like adding the simple syrup or lemon juice last so show off the color change when the syrup and the lemon juice interact with each other.

If you really want to showcase this color change, especially if you have little ones, you can make individual servings by the glass as well.

Single Serving Lavender Lemonade

  • 2oz of Lavender Simple Syrup
  • 2oz of Lemon Juice
  • 8oz of Water or Soda water

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Combine Lemon Juice or Lavender Simple Syrup and water and stir in Lemon Juice or Syrup last to show off the color change!
