Heal and warm your system from the inside-out with this dark brew that utilises three simple ingredients from your pantry. The hero ingredient for this tea is the immune-boosting fruit Elderberry that releases a glorious deep crimson colour, packed with antioxidants and vitamins, that helps to tame inflammation in the body and boost the immune system. Straight forward and adaptable, this stovetop recipe is set to become part of your medicinal arsenal.

You might recognise Mekdela Maskal from our beautiful recent campaign imagery. But modelling is just one part of the wide-ranging work this intelligent and generous-spirited woman does.

A trained journalist, she has worked with Open Newsrooms to help local communities understand and participate in the news process more effectively, and is the Engagement Editor for Covering Climate Now, which works to increase and improve climate change journalism. One aspect of her work that drew our particular interest is in the little-understood realm of food justice – or food apartheid, as it’s increasingly being called.

What you eat should activate your body’s first line of defense. To care for your immune system and alleviate any run-down feelings, whip up a batch of this intensely flavoured medicinal tonic for a powerful kick of health benefits.

Influenced by Ayurveda, Jamu Jamu’s bright marigold colour is created by fresh herbal heroes such as ginger — to aid gastrointestinal & nausea issues; turmeric — a natural detoxifier; citrus — high in vitamin C to rejuvenate skin and protect from infection; and raw honey — loaded with antioxidants to fight bacterial build up.

Peel, slice and mix the ingredients to feel the euphoric warmth of this century-old Indonesian tonic.

We eat a lot of Sriracha. And while we make and enjoy our favourite red condiment time and time again, we've also experimented and tweaked our recipe along the way. 
Now loaded with a super dose of antimicrobial garlic & capsaicin — a bio active compound that comes with a host of medicinal benefits, we consider this version worth sharing. 
Drizzle generously.

Kristin Dickson-Okuda has built her creative language from acknowledging an experience’s essence and then making it tangible. This process of design results in Kristin’s brand clothing line Rowena Sartin, and her husband Shin’s furniture project WAKA WAKA, both of which are housed in their Los Angeles-based concept space Iko Iko (Japanese for ‘let’s go!’). And as one would imagine, the energy of such sentiment is laden across all that they create.

For years we have admired Kristin’s approach to concept and construction, creating pieces for the body and home that encourage connection. Becoming a mother has further clarified this vision. Kristin's work is deliberate and bold, unveiled by ego and determined to gently answer some of life’s little questions.
