The verdict
Where this pick fits.
Slippery elm bark coats the throat from the first sip — not medicine, just mechanics. Licorice root pulls it sweet enough to drink without honey. One of those cups where the ritual and the remedy are exactly the same thing: steep hot, hold the mug, drink slow. Cult status earned honestly.
