🌿 Herb of the Month: Damiana – A Blissful Mocktail for the Sober Curious

Our Herb of the Month, Damiana, has a long and fascinating history as a heart-opening herb, mood enhancer, and sensual tonic. Traditionally used as an aphrodisiac and euphoric botanical by Indigenous cultures of Central America, Damiana continues to inspire those seeking natural ways to relax, connect, and feel good — without reaching for alcohol.

As more people embrace the sober curious movement, we're excited to share an alternative way to enjoy the uplifting properties of Damiana — this time, in a delicious alcohol-free mocktail.

Whether you're cutting back, staying dry, or simply looking for a new evening ritual, this mocktail is a perfect substitute for your usual nightcap. It's sophisticated, functional, and completely natural.

🍹 Damiana Sunset Mocktail – A Euphoric, Alcohol-Free Elixir

This botanical beverage blends a homemade Damiana infusion with tart citrus and a splash of fizz, offering a mellow lift and sensual warmth — without the alcohol.

✨ Ingredients:

For the Damiana base:

• 2 tablespoons dried Damiana

• 250 ml (1 cup) boiled water

• Optional: 1 tsp honey or agave (to taste)

• Ice cubes

• Orange or lime slice for garnish

🧪 How to Prepare:

1. Make the Damiana infusion
Steep 2 tablespoons of dried Damiana in 250 ml of just-boiled water for 15–20 minutes. Strain, sweeten if desired, and allow to cool completely. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.

2. Mix the mocktail
In a shaker or glass, combine:

• • 100 ml of your chilled Damiana tea

  • 50 ml fresh orange juice

  • 25 ml lime juice

  • A dash of honey or agave (if you'd like it sweeter)
    Shake or stir well.

3. Serve and enjoy
