If I had to recommend just one Ayurvedic tea that is deeply nourishing, calming, and supportive for both your body and mind — it would be CCF Tea.

CCF stands for Cumin, Coriander, and Fennel.
In Ayurveda, herbs and spices are never used only for flavor; they carry powerful medicinal properties. These three seeds are some of the most healing and balancing ingredients you can bring into your daily routine.

Let’s explore why they work so well together:

🌼 Why These Three Seeds?

🌶️ Cumin — Warming & Digestive

Cumin gently warms the body and helps stimulate Agni, your digestive fire.
It supports metabolism, nutrient absorption, and helps the body break down food more effectively.

🌿 Coriander — Cooling & Soothing

Coriander cools and calms the stomach.
It’s excellent for reducing inflammation, managing acidity, and soothing excess heat in the body.

🌸 Fennel — Sweet & Calming

Fennel is naturally sweet, aromatic, and deeply calming.
It eases bloating, relaxes the digestive tract, and helps the whole system feel lighter.

🌱 Why CCF Tea Works

When cumin, coriander, and fennel come together, they form a beautifully balanced blend that supports all three doshas — Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.

This makes CCF Tea ideal for anyone dealing with:

• Bloating

• Sluggish digestion

• Gas

• Heaviness

• Irregular digestion

And the best part?
You can drink it in any season, throughout the entire year.

🫙 My Simple Everyday CCF Mix

To make it easy and accessible, I like to keep a jar of the tea mix ready at all times.

Here’s the simple recipe:

• 2 tbsp cumin

• 2 tbsp coriander

• 2 tbsp fennel

Mix all three and store in a jar — and you’ve got your everyday tea blend.

🍵 How to Make CCF Tea

1. Take 1 cup of water.

2. Warm it in a small pan.

3. Add ½ teaspoon of your CCF mix.

4. Bring to a gentle boil.

5. Let it simmer for 1–2 minutes, until the water turns a light golden-green color.

6. Pour into your cup, let it cool slightly, and sip slowly.

Enjoy it in the morning, before meals, after meals — or anytime your digestion needs a little support.

🌤️ A Simple Tea Ritual

Make it mindful:

Sit comfortably.
Maybe on your balcony.
Watch the birds.
Sip slowly.
Notice how your body feels — during and after each sip.

This tea works beautifully as a pre-meal digestive booster or a post-meal calming tea.

It’s simple.
It’s ancient.
And it truly works.

Enjoy 💛
