Nature’s Viagra…??

So, what’s in that punch anyway and is it real?

Well, the main ingredient is known as Bois Bande and it has been touted as a natural aphrodisiac in the Caribbean for decades. It is made from the bark of the Richeria grandis tree and is broken down into powder, capsule form, or sold as the raw bark. Some people drink it as tea, mix it into warm beverages, or infuse it with alcohol (it hasn’t been reported to affect the potency).

Now naturally, I cannot warrant the use of the product and if you want to try it, make sure you talk to your doctor first. I mean, you wouldn’t take Viagra without talking to your doctor first (I know some of y’all would…I’m looking at you “old school playa”). All it takes is a quick Google search and tons of results will pop up for this not-quite-widely-known mystery. But, who knows? Grandma Evelyn’s recipe might just “pop up” somewhere in one of the books in the series.
