How to Prepare: Brewing Methods & Usage Guidelines
For a traditional infusion, steep 4-5 tablespoons (14-18g) of licorice root in 1 liter of water heated to maximum 80°C (176°F) in a glass or porcelain container. Cover and stir occasionally during a 5-10 minute steeping period, then strain through a fine mesh.
The resulting amber-gold tea delivers naturally sweet flavor without added sweeteners, offering a warming, soothing experience perfect for morning wellness rituals or evening digestive comfort.
Alternative preparation methods:
- Chew root sticks directly throughout the day for sustained throat comfort and slow flavor release
- Blend with complementary herbs like peppermint, fennel, or chamomile for synergistic digestive benefits
- Grate root pieces into culinary preparations for natural sweetness and depth
- Create external compresses using cooled infusion to soothe irritated skin
Consume 1-2 cups daily, preferably between meals for optimal digestive support. Avoid continuous use beyond several weeks without professional guidance, as prolonged consumption may affect blood pressure due to glycyrrhizin content.
Important considerations: Not recommended during pregnancy, lactation, or for children. Those with hypertension or cardiovascular conditions should consult healthcare providers before use. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve aromatic compounds and therapeutic properties.

Wellness Benefits: Digestive Harmony & Respiratory Support
Licorice root has earned its place in herbal medicine through millennia of traditional use, valued for supporting digestive comfort and respiratory wellness through its naturally occurring bioactive compounds.
The root contains glycyrrhizin, a compound that helps maintain the protective mucous lining of the stomach and small intestine, supporting digestive equilibrium for those with sensitive digestion. This gentle action soothes occasional discomfort while promoting overall gastrointestinal balance.
Key wellness properties include:
- Supports healthy digestive function and stomach comfort
- Soothes throat, pharynx, and vocal cords naturally
- Helps ease tickling sensations in the throat
- Contributes to respiratory tract wellness
- Provides natural anti-inflammatory support
The warming infusion delivers a coating sensation that many find particularly comforting during seasonal changes, when throat and respiratory challenges often arise. Its demulcent properties create a protective layer that soothes irritated mucous membranes throughout the digestive and respiratory pathways.
Singers, speakers, and anyone seeking vocal comfort have traditionally turned to licorice root for its throat-soothing effects, while those experiencing digestive sensitivity appreciate its gentle, balancing influence on the gastrointestinal system.
The root's antioxidant compounds work quietly to support the body's natural inflammatory response, contributing to overall wellness beyond its more immediate soothing effects.
Traditional Herbal Wisdom: Ancient Mediterranean & Chinese Medicine
Licorice root traces its medicinal lineage to ancient civilizations across both Eastern and Western traditions, where it was revered as a harmonizing herb with remarkable versatility and healing potential.
Egyptian papyri dating back thousands of years document licorice's use for digestive ailments and respiratory support, while ancient Greek physicians, including Hippocrates himself, prescribed it for soothing stomach complaints and clearing throat discomfort.
Roman soldiers carried licorice on long marches to quench thirst and maintain stamina, recognizing both its sweet flavor and energizing properties. Throughout medieval Europe, monasteries cultivated licorice in medicinal gardens, preserving knowledge of its therapeutic applications through centuries of herbal practice.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, licorice root holds the distinguished title of "Great Detoxifier" and appears in more classical formulas than perhaps any other herb, valued for its ability to harmonize and enhance the effects of other medicinal plants while moderating harsh properties.
Singers, actors, and public speakers across cultures have long relied on licorice sticks to maintain vocal clarity and comfort, creating a tradition that continues in modern herbal practice. This widespread historical use across diverse medical systems speaks to the root's genuine efficacy and enduring appeal.
