Need a digestive break after meals? Pukka Bio Tisane Menthe Poivrée & Réglisse 20 sachets combines freshness and sweetness to promote digestive comfort. Caffeine-free, organic and fair-trade, it's an easy addition to your daily well-being routine.
You know the feeling: your meal ended twenty minutes ago, but your stomach hasn't let up yet. A persistent heaviness, a tense stomach, sometimes a little bloating that sets in without warning. This type of post-prandial digestive discomfort is one of the most frequently reported to pharmacies, and affects fast eaters as well as those who have simply eaten too much.
It is precisely in this post-meal window that peppermint expresses its full potential. Menthol, its main active compound, has an antispasmodic effect on the smooth muscles of the intestinal wall. In concrete terms, it helps soothe mild cramps and feelings of overflow, like a cool breeze loosening a too-tight belt. The aroma itself plays a role: through olfactory action, it sends an immediate signal of lightness to the nervous system, even before the drink is absorbed.
Licorice plays a complementary role. Its flavonoid compounds, particularly glycyrrhizin, help support the gastric mucosa and soothe the internal tensions associated with difficult digestion. Its enveloping action balances the tonic and invigorating effect of mint, to create a synergy that is both refreshing and comforting - the combination of the two plants has been used in traditional herbal medicine for centuries for this complementary effect.
In addition to after-meals, this herbal tea can also be enjoyed in the evening, when the digestive tensions of the day make it difficult to fall asleep. Drinking it warm, slowly, without screens, activates the parasympathetic nervous system - the one that manages recovery and rest. It's a simple, yet physiologically coherent gesture to promote the transition from active to recovery mode.
Made from organic and fair-trade ingredients, this infusion is naturally caffeine-free. It can therefore be consumed at any time of day without risk of interfering with sleep - a point often overlooked with certain so-called "digestive" herbal teas containing stimulating plants.
Infuse one sachet for 5 to 15 minutes in a cup of freshly boiled water. The longer the infusion, the more the aromas and active plant ingredients diffuse into the water. You can consume 1 to 3 cups a day, depending on your needs and how you feel.

Presentation
Box of 20 organic infusion sachets, recyclable and compostable envelopes.
After a hearty meal, your digestive system mobilizes considerable energy: blood flow concentrates towards the digestive organs, intestinal motility accelerates, and abdominal tension can quickly set in. It's precisely in this post-prandial window that herbal tea works best.
Drink your cup slowly, in small sips, ideally seated and without rushing. The warmth of the infusion helps to relax the smooth muscles of the intestinal wall, while menthol - peppermint's main active compound - has a recognized antispasmodic action on the digestive tract. In concrete terms, it helps reduce bloating, mild cramps and the feeling of heaviness that follows meals that are too rich or too quick.
Licorice complements this effect by supporting the gastric mucosa: its flavonoid compounds help soothe irritation of the stomach lining and maintain a more comfortable gastric environment, particularly for those prone to mild heartburn or slow digestion.
Integrated into an evening ritual, this infusion offers a double benefit: it supports digestion while preparing the body to slow down. The act of drinking hot, slowly and without screens, sends a clear signal to the autonomic nervous system to switch from active mode to recovery mode - an often neglected transition, yet essential to quality sleep.
