Van Van is a special and potent blend of herbs that helps to clear energy and protect the spirit. Its name and formulation comes from a traditional Voodoo blend of essential oils that originated in the Algiers District of New Orleans. At one time it is said that a person couldn't walk down a street in Algiers without smelling the scent of Van Van oil. Prepared from aromatic grasses, Van Van was used to provide magical defense, change bad luck to good, and strengthen amulets and charms. The signature ingredient in the formula is lemongrass, a plant with a powerful ability to aid in energetic purification. Ginger is another main flavor note, with bright citrus and sweet cinnamon undertones. This tea is as delicious as it is potent with a pleasant lemony flavor and gentle warming quality.
