Pink Pony: 1 oz
For the soft yet wild hearts.
Our first hibiscus blend, born in Pride season. A tart, floral, heart-bright cup for everyone who learned to dance in spite of, and because of.
This is the medicine of the disco ball and the church candle. The wild dyke aunt. The cowgirl with rhinestones. The soft yet ferocious feminine — the rose and her thorn. Joy as devotion. Joy as the most ancient kind of survival.
Five plants weave the cup. Roselle and Cranberry Hibiscus bring the red — tart, cooling, blood-bright, alive with the pigments that move heat from the body. Lemongrass runs a citrus thread through, sharp and clean. Rose softens, the way a hand on a chest softens a held breath. Rose Geranium is the sweet high note, the rhinestone — traditionally used to lift the nervous system out of long contraction.
A cup for cooling heat. For brightening the interior. For remembering that pleasure is not the opposite of medicine.

All herbs are harvested in the morning, when the plants are at their most vibrant — essential oils concentrated, leaves known and awake, and the day still cool. This timing helps preserve flavor, aroma, and medicinal quality. After harvest, herbs are either hang-dried if appropriate or dehydrated at low temperatures. This allows the medicine to transition gently, preserving color, energetics, and potency rather than rushing the process.
