Not sure Joe about the tea, may work. As far as the licorice goes, regular twizzlers or licorice , doesn’t seem to work as well as the Australian - this one is very strong- shaped in short logs. I can’t say I know the percentage because I take it out of bag and put into an airtight jar whenever I purchase. One other person on Connect commented awhile ago that she has found it on Amazon. I tried Swedish black licorice, which also works, so give it a try. I’d love to know if you have any luck with the tea.

Thanks so much for the info. I did find some on Amazon as you suggested; I'm thinking of trying the licorice root drops, they seem to be even more concentrated.

@h8bigbiz regular Twizzlers is not pure licorice - it has some licorice content, but in essence it it candy (or a “sweet” if you are British). The “Australian licorice” that @reillyg1013 is referring to is, I believe, the pure licorice which is medicinal. You may be able to find pure licorice in health food stores.

Can you advise what brand of black licorice you purchase on Amazon? Would like to give it a try.
