Blackthorn's Botanical Brews

Bring a little kitchen witchery to your cup with Blackthorn’s Botanical Brews: Herbal Potions, Magical Teas, and Spirited Libations by Amy Blackthorn. This beautiful hardcover book blends herbal knowledge, magical intention, and drink-making into one practical guide for teas, potions, cocktails, mocktails, bitters, syrups, kombucha, and other botanical brews.

Amy Blackthorn teaches readers how everyday ingredients can be worked with for intention, mood, ritual, and personal practice. Inside, you’ll find guidance on what potions are, how they are used, and how to create your own magical drinks using herbs, fruits, spirits, teas, and kitchen ingredients. The book includes sections on magical daily practice, the kitchen, the bar, sodas and syrups, herbal beers, mead, cider, and even ideas for leftover potions.

This is a wonderful book for tea lovers, kitchen witches, herbalists, cocktail makers, and anyone who enjoys blending flavour with folk magic. It feels both useful and inspiring — the kind of book you can read for ideas, keep in your kitchen, or pull from when creating a seasonal drink, moon brew, altar offering, party beverage, or quiet cup of tea with purpose.
