Kinkeliba Leaves

What is kinkeliba?

In Senegal and Mali, kinkeliba leaves are widely consumed at breakfast or during the break of the Ramadan fast instead of coffee or tea. It is sometimes wrongly considered as the breakfast of the poor, many preferring milk, supposedly more noble.

How to use kinkeliba?

Kinkeliba is prepared in decoction. Put 20 g of dried leaves in 1 l of water. Bring to the boil, when it starts to boil, count 3 min, then remove from the heat and leave to infuse for about 20 min. Filter and it is ready.

The resulting drink can be drunk throughout the day. It is quite common to sweeten it, and even to add another ingredient (see next paragraph).

For a cure, count 2 to 3 cups per day for 3 weeks, otherwise, kinkeliba is drunk a bit like tea, once in a while for pleasure while doing good.
