Dry Ginger

Though we gnawed on ours raw when pregnant, there is a new way to get that gag-reflex calmed down during those pesky/ perfect almost ten months. We drank Jamaican ginger beers, pregnancy teas, and made ginger cookies. But once we had the baby, ginger was still an important part of our life. Check out Mamatini, a ginger-based bevvy especially for the with-child set. Mamatini was created by Erica Duignan Minnihan, a mom of 3, and her mother, Dr. Ifeoma Ikenze—a pediatrician with over 35 years of medical experience. As moms themselves, Erica and Dr. Ikenze know how important breastfeeding is — but they also know it’s not always easy, which is why they set out to create a certified organic, low in sugar tea that would provide a natural energy boost for nursing moms.
