Tulsi, or Indian Holy Basil, is a slightly sweet, smooth herbal tisane with a round, almost mint-like flavor. Called the "spiritual elixir of life", Tulsi boasts unique beneficial effects for both the body and mind, including improved memory, reduction of fever, relief from coughs, colds, asthma, stress, respiratory illness, and many other ailments. With its origins in India, Tulsi is worshiped both morning and night by Hindus at large for its rich properties and promotion of wellness and longevity.
