Poetic Bruja Botanica

So excited to have our first Las Cruces vending opportunity this Saturday at the Mystic Mermaid Festival! ^_^

This weekend! We are so excited! The building has a new look and the patio is almost ready! It’s going to be so much fun!!!

Our heartache elixir has helped me through so much grief and loss ❤️‍🩹 a soothing blend of rose petals, Cottonwood buds and hawthorn berry. Moving through big changes in my life right now, so this little baby has been on my nightstand giving me the sweet medicine of boundaries and love.

Excited to start going to markets again and offering up hot cups of my medicinal hot chocolate.100% vegan and sugar free, so add as much sweetness or milk as you like. My medicinal hot chocolate is an immune system boosting and energizing blend of cacao, medicinal mushrooms, dandelion root, and cinnamon. Beams the flavor of rich Mexican hot chocolate. You can try packs of my hot chocolate mix on our website: izaavalos.com

This first foods offering comes straight from the heart of me and my ancestors ❤ xocolotl is a first foods for Mexica people, meaning this plant is integral to the wellness of our communities. Nowadays chocolate has taken over the world, but stay tuned for more posts on our traditional stories about cacao and the 'drink of the Gods'.

One of my favorite allies for dry skin when the desert winds are high. Our cottonwood balm is also excellent for easing pain and swelling from cuts, burns, bruises, or arthritis. The antibiotic properties help prevent infection.
