Spotlight: Pink Pepper Essential Oil

Too much bustling and busy-ness makes it hard to keep ourselves in focus—but life is just chaotic sometimes, even when we don’t want it to be! One way to get a moment’s reprieve from the wilder parts of daily life is to take a break with the unique aromatics of essential oils. A favorite essential oil aroma of ours for those hectic days…Pink Pepper.  

The ancient Incans considered the Pink Pepper tree and its small pink fruits sacred, and often lined the perimeters of their temples and palaces with them. Today, you can line the perimeter of your home and body with Pink Pepper’s incredible essential offering in the form of pure essential oil. It has a sharp, spicy aroma with a note of fruity freshness that arrests the senses. It’s no wonder the Incans loved this beautiful spice.

Tame the frantic and frenzy with some of our suggestions for ways to make Pink Pepper your new best ally when needing to refocus your trajectory and stay on track! 

Harness the Flavor 

With a mildly fruity and peppery flavor, you can use Pink Pepper along with or in place of ground black pepper to enhance the flavor of meats, sauces, dressings, and more. With a similar but more subtle peppery flavor than Black Pepper essential oil, it can add a new dimension to your favorite dishes. Turn cooking a meal into a time to slow down and savor the experience as this dynamic aroma fills your kitchen. 

Aroma Hack: For an even more stimulating aromatic profile, combine Pink Pepper with a few drops of your favorite citrus or floral essential oil!
