Aniseed is the fragrant seeds of a flowering plant native to the Eastern Mediterranean and Southwest Asia. It is sweet and aromatic, with distinct notes of licorice, fennel, and tarragon. It is a notable flavoring component of absinthe and other liqueurs and confections around the world.
In ancient Rome, it was customary to serve aniseed-spiced cakes as a digestif at the conclusion of feasts. It has been used historically to calm upset stomachs and aid in digestion.
Origin: China | We recommend referring to a healthcare practitioner before using herbs and spices, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.

This is the first Adagio tea I've received that didn't have instructions on the bag. How best to brew it?
