Herbal Wellbeing: learn to create herbal pastilles

We will make some herbal pastilles at Abbot House with Sandra Nussbaum from Nut Blossom Apothecary and discuss how to support good digestion for health whilst sipping a digestive tea.

Pastilles (powdered plants rolled with some honey/glycerine (for the vegans))are made by combining powdered herbs with a liquid to form a type of dough which can be made when needed or in advance. This technique is very simple and fun, yet quite versatile as depending on your choice of medicinal plants, you can soothe a sore throat, improve digestion, boost your immunity. We will explore the appropriate medicinal plants to use and of course, the making of these pastilles.
