Orange, cinnamon and ginger: no doubt, with their new limited edition Christmas infusion , our 2 Marmots are right on theme!
Why do we associate spices with Christmas? It's true when you think about it: the big bearded man dressed in red and white smells of soot, at home by the fire, it smells of pine, and on our plates, it's more like turkey with chestnuts or truffles for the more gourmet among you.
We are told in the earpiece that all this could well have something to do with gingerbread and perhaps mulled wine.
For others, it's simply a matter of difficult digestion : yes, after a long meal, often copious and well-watered, there's nothing like spices to help digestion. Moreover, the Romans, who were big eaters and fond of feasting, were crazy about spices!
Whatever the case, these spices, each more festive than the last, bring a touch of magic to our new infusion. And for that alone, we thank them!
The first guest in this festive infusion: orange ! With its legendary energy, it awakens our taste buds and subtly adds sparkle to the holidays.
Alongside it, cinnamon bark plays spoilsport with its captivating and delicious scent. What is less well known is that this spice has always been used to warm the body. It is said to have stimulating properties, and cinnamon is said to help fight frostbite on cold days... Especially if you sip our infusion outside!
To raise the temperature, you can also count on ginger . Both fresh and spicy, it is traditionally used to fight chilblains or poor circulation in the hands and feet. And to top it all off, ginger and its delicious lemony taste are also a faithful companion for difficult digestions.
In this Christmas herbal tea , green anise , black pepper, and cloves are also part of the party. Each in their own way, they will help you get through the winter and avoid liver problems . Green anise reduces bloating and aids digestion. The tonic black pepper has the ability to stimulate digestion by increasing the secretion of pancreatic juice. The last mysterious guest in our recipe is cloves. With its warm and powerful flavor, it celebrates digestive problems!
With Marmottes en Fête , festive flavors are invited to the burrow and to your home!
Tamed by the hands of master infusers, spices are like a gift to give or to treat yourself to to sparkle the good mood. But rest assured, this new seasonal infusion will not be as furtive as Santa Claus! It will accompany you before, during, and after the holidays. And will disappear only to return better according to our harvests and our desires.
