For centuries Andean communities ate Maca roasted, boiled, or ground into flour, and often used as a trade good. Spanish chroniclers note it was tied to mountain life and at times was also fed to livestock in highland communities.

Maca is a small root crop native to the central Andes, traditionally cultivated at 14,000 feet: few crops survive there. Forming a low rosette of leaves above ground and a swollen root below, it has long been a staple. Once limited to the high plateaus, Maca is now also grown at lower elevations.

This is yellow Maca in a gelatinized form: it’s gently heated so its starches are broken down for easier brewing and a smoother cup. Made into a tea, it has a tangy taste with a butterscotch-like aroma ~ earthy, slightly sweet, and carrying the character of the Andes.

Ingredients

Organic Maca Maca Root (Lepidium meyenii)

Directions

Use spring or filtered water. Good water is an essential part of brewing a great cup of tea. 

Relax. Some of the most enjoyable aspects of tea are the calmness and ritual that surround it. Take some time for tea! Quick Brew Directions: Pour freshly boiled water over tea bags in your chosen mug, cover, and let steep 3 to 5 minutes to taste. 

Full Strength Directions: This tea uses gelatinized Maca powder. Nothing is added ~ the roots are gently heated, so the starches break down, making the powder easier to mix, and smoother to drink. The best way to prepare is simply to tear open the tea bag and stir the powder directly into freshly boiled water for a strong, slightly cloudy, and satisfying cup.
