Hello sunshine!
Picture this scenario: Saturday night, dinner with friends and, in the end, a few extra drinks…So what´s next? Sunday´s hangover or “if only I could turn back time.”
Does this ring a bell? If yes, then besides rest and drinking lots of water I suggest a “tea” called ume kudzu, with only two ingredients besides water:
- Kudzu: the starch of the root Pueraria lobata with anti-inflammatory properties and a great ally of the digestive system
- Umeboshi: fermented Japanese plum, liver friendly
Ume Kudzu “Tea”
Ingredients:
- 1 tsp of kudzu
- 1 cup of water + 3 tsp
- 1 umeboshi plum
Instructions:
- Place the kudzu and three teaspoons of water in a bowl
- Mix well until you dissolve the kudzu
- Add a cup of water
- Bring to heat and stir until the liquid becomes transparent
- Pit the plum and add its mashed flesh
- Turn the heat all the way down and wait around three minures to be ready
You can find these items in health food stores.
Nurture yourself,
Natacha
