Episode 007: On Being Nettled


A Big Hug to You

Nettle will never be the new kale unless we negotiate its sting. We delve deep into the why of nettle sting, how it feels, then diffuse it by turning fresh to dried.

Recipe:
Nette-infused hot cocoa 🍃☕️
For one cup:
1 Tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder (non-alkalinized, organic)
1 Tablespoon honey (raw, local)
8 ounces nettle tea (2 tsp to 8 ounce water)
1 ounce whole coconut milk
Prepare nettle tea. Combine with all other ingredients in saucepan and heat over low heat, whisking together until warm. Do not overheat.

For one quart:
1/3 cup cocoa
1/3 cup honey
32 ounces nettle tea (2 1/2 tablespoons to 32 ounces water)
1/2 cup whole coconut milk
