Huh. I am still wary of it, I think. Say, what's your local water like?
Liquorice root in tea is generally associated with fasting or being stomach-sick for me, but you have my thanks for reminding me it exists outside those contexts.
This instant, I have just taken a sip of brewed-up peppermint, as it is too late at night for caffiene...relatedly, though, I do have more Moroccan mint tea in at present, and my zavarka pot actually contains the end of a mix of pu'erh and lapsang; I may well throw some liquorice root into my morning cup of it (and try not to inevitably chafe my lips raw and overburden my tongue eating the rest of the root...hypersensitivity, sticks that taste good and an urge to chew things are a poor mix). Any nefarious plans for the Kenyan?
