A Delicious and Aphrodisiac Tea

a18.7.14.jpg
Aniseeds are delightfully fragrant due to their high concentration of anethole, an essential oil. The seeds also contain other important compounds like acetophenone, p-anisaldehyde, anise alcohol, estragol, limonene and pinene. They are an excellent source of minerals like iron, magnesium, calcium, manganese zinc, potassium and copper. These minerals are essential to cardiac, bone and blood health and are needed by the body to turn food into energy. The B-complex vitamins found in aniseed are essential to overall health. Loaded with riboflavin, pyridoxine, niacin and thiamin, the seeds can contribute to healthy levels of neuro-chemicals in the brain.

So far so good, but another important property of aniseed, known since ancient times, is to heighten libido. A cup of its tea in the evening and sensuality will blossom like a nocturnal flower. A deliciously refreshing tea can be obtained by crushing a spoon of aniseeds, infusing it with hot water with the addition of honey and a slice of lemon. Once chilled it becomes an ideal beverage for summer.
