Bilje Borča Marshmallow Root Loose Tea, Bosnian Herbal 30g (1.1oz)

Bilje Borča Sljezov Korijen Marshmallow Root Loose Tea is a 30g Serbian single-herb loose tea made from the dried root of Althaea officinalis — one of the oldest medicinal herbs in European herbalism, prized for its high mucilage content and soothing, coating properties for the throat and digestive tract. Bilje Borča is a Belgrade-based Serbian herbal company working in the South Slavic tradition of biljno liječenje (herbal healing), collecting and drying medicinal plants from Serbian meadows and highlands — sljezov korijen (marshmallow root) has been one of the most widely used Balkan herbal remedies for generations. Sljez is the quintessential Serbian home remedy for sore throat, dry cough, and irritated mucous membranes — the tea grandmother prepared at the first sign of respiratory discomfort, its viscous, slightly sweet infusion coating and calming the throat from the very first sip. Steep 1 teaspoon in hot (not boiling) water for 10 minutes, strain, and drink warm to allow the natural mucilage to coat and soothe the throat and digestive tract.
