Colds Cocktail | Botanical Tonic 59 ml

With Colds Cocktail, Anima Mundi concentrates seven plant extracts in a spicy, pungent liquid formula. At its heart are the roots of Echinacea purpurea and Echinacea angustifolia, which are particularly closely associated in herbal tradition with seasonal well-being and cold season. Fresh ginger, garlic, and turmeric complement the blend with three time-honored roots and rhizomes long used in strengthening and warming herbal formulas.

Boldo, cayenne, and apple cider vinegar give the tonic a second, distinctly bitter and stimulating dimension: boldo has a long South American tradition associated with digestion, cayenne represents warmth and circulation in traditional formulas, while apple cider vinegar rounds out the pungent, bitter plant blend. The result is a deliberately intense tonic for times when robust, warming botanicals are desired.

The modern Herbal Apothecary Anima Mundi combines traditional herbal knowledge from different cultures with concentrated plant extracts and carefully selected organic and wildcrafted botanicals.

The formulas are made in the USA at an FDA-registered and cGMP-certified facility, contain no fillers, binders, or flow agents, and are laboratory tested. Colds Cocktail exemplifies the brand’s philosophy particularly well: an uncompromisingly intense blend of classic herbs, roots, spices, and bitters.

Plants & Botanicals

• Echinacea purpurea & Echinacea angustifolia
  Anima Mundi deliberately combines two Echinacea species. Echinacea is one of the best-known plants in Western herbal tradition associated with the cold season and natural defenses. This traditional use explains its central role in Colds Cocktail.
• Fresh Ginger & Garlic
  Both are processed fresh and give the formula much of its robust character. Ginger is associated with warmth and digestive well-being in both Asian and European traditions. Garlic has been used for centuries in strengthening plant formulas and is traditionally valued especially in connection with defenses and circulation.
• Turmeric
  Turmeric is deeply rooted in Ayurveda and the herbal traditions of South and Southeast Asia. The root has traditionally been used in connection with digestion, balance, and seasonal well-being; its curcuminoids and antioxidant properties remain the subject of intensive research.
• Boldo
  The aromatic, bitter leaf comes from South America, where it has a long folk-medicine tradition associated with digestion and well-being after eating. Its bitterness complements the blend’s more pungent, warming ingredients.
• Cayenne & Apple Cider Vinegar
  Cayenne brings intense warmth and pungency and is traditionally associated with circulation and vitality. Apple cider vinegar complements the formula with its characteristic acidity and makes Colds Cocktail a distinctly robust, almost culinary herbal extract.

There is an extensive body of traditional knowledge and modern research concerning echinacea, ginger, garlic, turmeric, boldo, cayenne & co. Here, we limit ourselves to a concise overview. Those who would like to learn more can find plenty of additional information online.

FAQ

What is Colds Cocktail intended for?
