Rooted in Cuban Tradition
Miel de Guira has been part of our family story for generations. In Havana, Cuba, our grandmother and mother received it from a country woman in the neighborhood who prepared her own treasured recipe for local families. Her husband gathered the guira and other ingredients, and she transformed them into the dark, sweet herbal syrup remembered by so many Cubans.
When members of the Cuban community in the United States began asking where they could buy authentic Miel de Guira, the original maker shared her recipe with our family. Today, that tradition continues in South Florida, where a Cuban country woman on our farm prepares each small batch by hand. The guira cimarrona used in our syrup is grown on our own farm in Homestead, Florida.
This is more than a product to us. It is a Cuban family tradition, preserved and prepared with the care it deserves.
What Is Miel de Guira?
Miel de Guira—also searched as honey guira, guira honey, miel guira or jarabe de guira—is a traditional Cuban artisan syrup made from guira pulp and a blend of sweet and herbal ingredients. Although the name contains the word “honey,” it is not ordinary or pure bee honey. Bee honey is one ingredient in the finished formula.
Our Miel de Guira is a naturally liquid, dark-brown syrup with a color similar to cane molasses. Its flavor is sweet and slightly herbal. It is not expected to be thick or pasty like regular honey, and it should not normally separate.
Each bottle contains 750 ml / 25.4 fl oz and is closed with a cork and tamper-evident safety seal.
Key Ingredients
Our traditional recipe includes:
- Guira cimarrona pulp
- Bee honey
- Cane molasses
- Ginger root
- Cane spirit (aguardiente de caña)
- Water
- Additional ingredients from the inherited family formula
The syrup is cooked in two stages and handcrafted in small batches. It contains cane spirit as an ingredient; the final alcohol content has not been laboratory verified. For adults 21 years of age or older only.
Allergen notice: Contains bee honey and ginger. Do not use if you are allergic to either ingredient. The complete legally required ingredient statement on the finished label must identify every ingredient by its common name.
What Is Miel de Guira Traditionally Used For?
People searching for “Miel de Guira benefits” or “Miel de Guira para que sirve” often encounter a long-standing Cuban tradition associated with women’s wellness. Within that tradition, some women take Miel de Guira after menstruation as part of a 21-day routine, historically connected with ideas of “cleansing the womb” or “cleansing the matriz” and with the hope of becoming pregnant.
These are traditional and anecdotal uses, not scientifically established medical benefits. This product has not been clinically tested or evaluated to improve fertility, cleanse the uterus, regulate menstruation, remove fibroids or cysts, or treat any medical condition. It is not a fertility treatment, and results are not guaranteed. Customer stories do not replace medical evidence.
Traditional 21-Day Directions
- Shake the bottle well before every serving.
- Take approximately one small Cuban coffee cup—about 1¾ to 2 fl oz—in the morning, traditionally before eating.
- Take a second small Cuban coffee cup before bed. It may be taken whether or not you have eaten.
- Traditionally, the routine begins immediately after menstruation ends so the 21 days can be completed with fewer interruptions.
- Do not take it during menstruation. If menstruation begins during the routine, pause and continue the remaining days after it ends; do not restart from day one.
- Do not complete more than three consecutive 21-day cycles without taking a one-month break.
The Complete 21-Day Package contains three 750 ml bottles and is designed to supply approximately one traditional 21-day routine when taken twice daily. The exact number of servings may vary because Cuban coffee cups differ in size.
Some people in the community traditionally reduce the routine to one small cup once daily. Because this formula contains cane spirit and concentrated sweeteners, anyone with gastritis, a sensitive stomach or another medical condition should speak with a healthcare professional before use. A reduced serving does not make the product appropriate for everyone, and fasting may not be suitable for every person.
