About & Traditional Use

Cuachalalate is a dried Mexican tree bark with a gentle, woodsy aroma and a smooth, earthy flavor. Cleaned and dried, the bark pieces are ready to simmer into a warm, rustic infusion.

This bark has long been a familiar traditional botanical, most often enjoyed as a simple hot-water infusion, sometimes lightly sweetened or paired with other dried herbs for a comforting cup.

How to Use

To brew an infusion, add a few pieces of cuachalalate bark to about 2 cups of hot water and simmer gently for 10 to 15 minutes, then strain. As a bark, it benefits from a slow simmer to release its earthy flavor.

Cuachalalate pairs well with cinnamon, a slice of orange peel, or a touch of honey to round out its woody character.
