Bloodroot and Bones
Some recipes were never written down. They were whispered.
Forgotten Blends are not simply elixirs—they are echoes.
Stirred from ancient hands, carried across lifetimes,
they are vessels of memory and unspoken truths.
Bloodroot & Bones
Ancient Origin: Written in the ruins of forgotten temples.
This is for the ones who have given everything.
The caretakers. The survivors. The ones who keep showing up after life has scraped them clean. Not a stimulant. Not a band-aid.
This is deep nourishment—the kind that doesn’t just refuel, but rebuilds.
When your fire is low, your bones ache, and your blood feels tired—this is what you reach for.
