Licorice Root Tincture
Licorice is a prolific herb, being one of the most widely used botanicals in the world. It is the single most utilized herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine today. The ancient Egyptians flavored a drink called “Mai-sus” with licorice, and large quantities of the root were discovered in the tomb of King Tut to aid his trip into the afterlife. When travelling with Alexander the Great, Dioscorides advised his troops to carry and employ licorice to help with stamina for long marches, as well as for thirst in areas of drought.
