Is it true that a mother’s love is the most potent of all the potions ever discovered, invented, or imagined? If so, is it possible for someone, somewhere, to brew a mother’s love?

With Mother’s Day drawing near, I find myself craving a deeper insight into these seemingly obvious questions. My heart already knows the answer, but today, my intellect wants to play devil’s advocate.

We all agree that the purest form of love in human nature is that of a mother. This purity parallels that of gold. Since alchemy has long failed to create gold, I can safely assume that no one has managed to replicate a mother’s love either.

But why assume anything? Why not treat it as a DIY project and verify for ourselves? After all, with something as universal as a mother’s love, surely we should be able to find the right ingredients and craft our version of the brew. 🙂

Let’s explore the ingredients this unique blend might require. And see if we can make a recipe of our own.

Recipe for Mother’s Love: An Attempt

Ingredients (in no particular order)

Selflessness, Endurance, Uplifting Spirit, Moral Compass, Emotional Support, Laughter, Strength, Steadfastness, Adaptability, etc.

My head is already spinning just listing these ingredients. And to think, I haven’t even begun to mix them. I can’t fathom how I would make any progress at this rate. I already feel the need to take a break from this daunting task.

To soothe my mind, I do what I always do: I turn to tea.

My tea box from MAKOMAS offers multiple herbal tea blends, each with a unique flavor.
I’ve decided to try them all in search of one that comes closest to resembling my mother’s love. Let’s hope one of these blends can compare to the brew I originally set out to create. 🙂

Hibiscus & Ginger Blend

Hibiscus is rich in antioxidants, and ginger has anti-inflammatory properties. This tea blend comforts, cares, and inspires me, like my mother. I can sense her warmth, vibrant spirit, and endless grace in this blend.

This tangy, vibrant blend, with its bright crimson hue, is an invigorating infusion that awakens my senses and supports my overall wellness.

Hibiscus & Moringa

I’ve always turned to this blend to lift my spirits and warm my soul.

The tart, fruity notes of hibiscus combined with the nutrient-rich goodness of moringa recreate the cheerful presence and enduring support of my mother’s uplifting spirit, abundant energy, and boundless love.

Every sip offers a rejuvenating experience and infuses vitality into my day.

Lemongrass & Ginger

Lemongrass helps relieve stress and promotes relaxation, while ginger is a warming spice. This blend symbolizes not only a mother’s clarity and calmness but also her strength to inspire courage when it’s needed most.

With the citrusy brightness of lemongrass and the comforting warmth of ginger, this infusion strikes a perfect balance, soothing yet energizing, just like a mother’s steady nature.

Kinkeliba, Lemongrass & Hibiscus

Kinkeliba supports digestion, detoxification, and immune health. Blended with the citrus notes of lemongrass and the bold tang of hibiscus, this tea becomes truly irresistible.

I feel my mother’s wisdom in the Kinkeliba, her clarity in the lemongrass, and her vibrant spirit in the hibiscus. Every mug of this harmonious blend nurtures me, just like one of her hugs.

At MAKOMAS, we believe in combining time-honored ingredients with modern wellness needs. Each blend mentioned above contains premium, organic, and all natural ingredients, sourced directly from rural women farmers in West Africa.

All of our teas are natural, organic, caffeine-free, and perfect for any time of day.

I truly believe that strong mothers raise strong families by teaching each of us how to rise. Each woman who is a mother has this special power. I know my mother did. She shaped me into the caring and empathetic soul that I am today.

Several black women farmers in West Africa are mothers and capable of changing the destinies of their entire generation. At MAKOMAS, every purchase helps empower such women with the resources they need to uplift their families and communities.
