Mahkota Dewa - Heavenly Crown - (Phaleria Macrocarpa)

(Phaleria Macrocarpa)

That is the Latin name of Makhota Dewa. In Indonesian this means something like angelic or heavenly "crown." It just tastes so good for such a great healing herb that is purported to cure many human ailments.

We went to the local hair salon. This kind of doubles as a sundries store. I happened to see a package of Mahkota Dewa in there. This is quite a fabulous tropical herb. I will learn the English name and post about it again soon.

The interesting thing about this herb is that it tastes really good. When you boil it up in the pot there is not horrendous broth to guzzle. It's quite pleasant and better yet it cures many human ailments.

Even so I am still quite partial to hot cup of Sambiloto tea, it is akin to herbal whiskey.
Sometimes you just want a drink that will curl your eyelashes and make you healthy at the same time.
