When 740 children were condemned to death at sea during World War II, the whole world said “no.” Only one man said “yes.” It was 1942. An old ship drifted in the middle of the Indian Ocean like a coffin. On board were 740 Polish children, orphans who had survived Soviet labor camps where their parents had died of hunger, disease, and exhaustion.

Why does bay leaf have a place in our cups?

Often associated with stews, bay leaves hold a few secrets. Used in infusions, they release warm, slightly spicy aromas that immediately induce relaxation. It is precisely this ability to perfectly complement a meal that makes them such a popular beverage. Without promising miracles, they simply help you unwind, offering a truly pleasant experience. It's like a comforting blanket for the stomach… but in the form of a hot drink.

Simple ingredients for a delicious herbal tea.

Good news: the basic recipe is incredibly simple. You'll need water, a few bay leaves, a lemon, an orange, and a touch of honey or brown sugar, depending on your preference. The leaves can be fresh or dried; either works perfectly. The citrus zest adds a fresh and aromatic touch that completely transforms the flavor.

Step-by-step preparation, stress-free.
