Blessed Thistle is a thistle-like herb native to the Mediterranean region. The herb is often used in bitter, tonic drinks. The roots of the blessed thistle were used by Algerian locals to soothe burns and wounds and made into a powder to mix with wine or made into fresh juice or tea.
Directions
To prepare as a tea, pour 8 oz. boiling water over 1/2 tsp. of herb. Cover and steep for 5-10 minutes, strain and serve immediately.
Safety Guideline: If pregnant, nursing, suffering from any medical condition, or taking medication, consult a healthcare practitioner before use. Persons with allergies to other members of the Asteraceae family should exercise caution with blessed thistle, as allergic cross-reactivity is common to Asteraceae plants. Keep out of reach of children.
