There are many different ways in different cultures in which you can prepare a ccf tea.

  1. We suggest using ¼ teaspoon of whole dried fennel seeds, cumin seeds and coriander seeds and grind them together to create a fine powdered.
  2. Add 3 cups of water to a sauce pan and bring to boil before adding the powdered mixture and brew until you can smell a strong fragrance being given off.
  3. If you prefer, you can add raw honey, ginger or cinnamon to improve the taste.
  4. This can even be made in large batches and refrigerated for later use.

Here are some of the ayurvedic benefits of ccf tea and amazing reasons to brew it.

CCF Tea for Weight loss

Many weight loss programs are based on the detoxifying properties of this tea. It can help ‘clear away’ toxins from the digestive tract as well as those accumulated in the fat cells. This can help increase your metabolism and make your more active. If taken regularly it can help dissolve the stored fat in your body.

Ease Indigestion with ccf Tea

Bloating, gas, cramps, acidity, and constipation can be treated with this healing tea. Even colicky new borns are prescribed this to help settle their stomach and provide them with some relief.

Hydration

By taking ccf tea regularly you provide your body with water that it severely requires and the one thing we don’t take enough during the day. Hydration not only rejuvenates the body, but it activates many systems that prevent you from feeling sluggish and lethargy.

Skin Care

Tapping into its cooling and hydrating properties, ccf tea can help us get younger looking skin and get rid of crow’s feet around the eyes and mouth by pulling the skin and providing a Botox effect.

Cumin, Coriander and Fennel Tea for Congestion

Perhaps the most common use of this tea is in the form of ‘joshanda’. This helps get rid of clogged nose and soothes a sore throat.

Take 4 to 5 sips every half an hour or 2 to 3 cups everyday to avail the maximum benefit. You can drink it hot or add ice to create a cool refreshing drink. Don’t get discouraged by the taste as it may take some time getting used to.
