Cerasee & Grandma’s Kitchen: Why Bitter Herbs Are Still a Blessing

Cerasee tea in Caribbean culture featuring traditional herbal tea boxes

If you ever spent time in a Caribbean kitchen, you know Cerasee wasn’t optional. Whether it was flu season, a bellyache, or just “that time of year,” grandma was ready with a pot of the bitterest tea you’d ever taste.

Back then, we didn’t understand why. But now we know: bitter herbs like Cerasee have deep roots in Caribbean healing traditions. Used to cleanse the blood, cool the body, and ease digestion, Cerasee is a plant passed down from generation to generation.

Today, we still sip it—some of us for the health, and some of us for the memory. That warm mug of bitter tea is a connection to our ancestors, our elders, and our home.

At ODatzGood, we honor that heritage by offering only authentic Cerasee from trusted brands like JCS and Shavuot. So the next time you sip, take a moment to remember: this isn’t just tea. It’s tradition in a cup.
