Irish Moss is a seaweed that can be found along coastal lines and coastal rocks around the Atlantic & Pacific Oceans. Irish Moss has been known for its high nutritional content, as it derives from the ocean it is filled with lots of high quality nutrients. It is very healthy with lots of different nutrients; it has been said to contain 92 of the 102 elements composing the human body. It has been used as an aphrodisiac as well. In the Caribbeans, in countries such as Jamaica, it is often consumed as a beverage/drink (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). It has also been used in various regions of the world in the making of beverages, deserts, beers, wines and various food & drink related culinary preparations.

Directions:

* Wash the Irish Moss with water to remove all foreign matter such as sand and dirt. Wash it well and thoroughly for a few minutes in a colander. It is very important.

* Soak the Irish Moss in water overnight. 2 parts of water to 1 part of moss. You can put it in the fridge a few hours later. You can also do this early in the morning and it can be ready to use later in the evening. Some people let it soak for just for a few hours. It's your choice. Ideally, the longer it soaks the more the moss will soak up the water and become thicker and more plump to make the drink.

* Now, you can put it in the blender and blend it on high with the cover on for a couple of minutes. Do it in intervals of 30 seconds to avoid burning the motor of your blender and give it a light mix manually with the big spoon in between the intervals.

*Empty the mixture into a big glass jar, or jug, put the cover on (or saran wrap) and put it in the fridge to refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours. Once the time elapses, check up on it as it will have thickened you will want to give it a good stir, or throw it back into the blender for a few spins.
