Not only is bone broth nutrient dense, it is also full of what our body craves: collagen, gelatin, bio-available minerals and amino acids. These and other ingredients—such as ginger, turmeric, curcumin, and chlorophyll—fuel our immune system in the winter months. Bone broth also contains the building blocks of muscle—calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and glucosamine—and combats inflammation in our bodies because of the anti-inflammatory amino acids it contains, making bone broth a terrific beverage that not only fights off wintertime colds and flu viruses but also helps us achieve optimal health all year round.
Much like mom used to make chicken noodle soup when we were younger and under the weather, bone broth offers the same comfort in every sip regardless of if we’re under the weather or not.
At Fresh Thymes Eatery, our gluten-free bone broth comes in three signature styles: ginger garlic beef, roasted turmeric chicken, and a vegan sun-dried tomato mushroom broth. You can sample all three when you order our Bone Broth Flight!
We also offer add-ins to our bone broth, giving you the opportunity to customize it depending on your mood, health needs, or cravings. Bone broth add-ins include cilantro, green onion, parsley, chickpea miso, and our very own house-made sriracha sauce.
Fresh Fact: Owner and chef Christine Ruch spends five days making Fresh Thymes’ beef bone broth and two days making our chicken broth. A lot of heart and healing-love goes into the bone broth you’ll find at Fresh Thymes.
