Blue Lotus Leaf (Nymphaea caerulea) - dried
Grown without pesticides - Origin: Thailand

Active alkaloids are alcohol soluable but not water soluable, so historically Lotus has been soaked in wine and then consumed for effects.

The ancient Egyptians consumed Lotus flowers soaked in wine as a sacred method of connecting with 'The Divine'. Depictions of the Lotus flower and Lotus consumption is so prominent in their artwork that it leaves no doubt as to its importance to their culture.  We know now that the blissful, connected state of mind from Lotus is a result of positively mood affecting alkaloids unique to the plant.
