Senna is a strong, traditional stimulant laxative herb — the one to reach for occasionally, not daily. We recommend blending it with warming herbs to soften its bitter taste.
How to brew: ½–1 tsp per cup of just-boiled water. Steep 5–10 minutes; best taken in the evening. Start with a small amount.
Taste: bitter, grassy
Traditionally used for: occasional constipation
Pairs with: ginger, fennel, peppermint
