Cinnamon Archives - The Booch Witch

Thawed, frozen blackberries in a glass jar sit on a blue plate with a jar of cinnamon powder. Scattered next to the jars are dried elderberries. A druzy quartz and fresh tulsi are also on the plate.

Berry Persuasive Kombucha

Deeply emotional, Scorpios are often magnetic and have the power to convince. In honor of one of my absolute favorite astrological signs, I present the Scorpio-themed Berry Persuasive Kombucha. This forceful and potent kombucha contains immunity-building natural ingredients like real, dried elderberries and blackberries.

Blackberries encourage success and are a juicy and deep addition to any homebrewed kombucha. Balanced with a dash of cinnamon and six dried elderberries, Berry Persuasive Kombucha is also a quick and easy recipe.

Blackberry – thawed frozen, or fresh (2 tbsp)
Elderberry – dried berries (6)
Cinnamon – one dash
Tulsi – dried or fresh (1 tsp) optional

Tulsi is a remarkable herb and adds a unique layer to homemade kombucha.

I like to grow a pot of tulsi every year in my garden and utilize the dried leaves throughout the year. Consuming tulsi is known to foster spiritual enlightenment. Find dried elderberries and tulsi, in the bulk section of your local, friendly co-op and even some grocery stores.

The handwritten recipe is displayed in an open notebook adorned with fresh sage and a bear-shaped jar of honey.

Libra Balance Kombucha

Libra Season is September 23 – October 23. As Libra ushers in the autumnal equinox, we recognize this powerful Air sign with a special harvest recipe. Enjoy Libra Balance Kombucha and the seasonal celebration in every sip!

Ancient Romans favored the Libra sign, which symbolizes a balance and harmony of seasons – equal day and night hours. Enjoy this recipe with freshly harvested apples from any local orchard. A squirt of local honey sweetens up the spice of cinnamon and the earthiness of sage.

Apple – fresh, sliced (1 tbsp.)
Mint – Fresh (1 sprig)
Honey – fresh, local (1 squirt)
Dash of cinnamon
Honey – local honey (1 squirt)
Sage – 1 leaf dried or fresh, crushed between your fingers

In natural light, a bear-shaped bottle of honey lays on a table next to shallow bowls containing dried rose petals, thawed frozen raspberries and cloves. Scattered next to the bowls are small stalks of cinnamon and a few sprigs of fresh rosemary.
