Star Anise? Have you heard of this spice? ⭐️
90% of the world’s star anise crop is used for extraction of Shikimic Acid, a chemical used to make Tamiflu a prescription Anti-viral drug for the Influenza virus (Treatment for the Flu).
✨Wow, right? Food Is Medicine! ✨
I love Iced Thai Coffee and Star Anise is the main ingredient in this recipe!
Boil 6 Star Anise pods, 1/2 tsp turmeric, 1/4 tsp cardamom, a few cloves and a cinnamon stick in 2 cups of water for 10 minutes. Add to 1 spoonful of instant coffee. Cool, pour over ice and add condensed coconut milk.
Hope you try it!
