Sweet juice (apple, pear, grape) will decorate with its smell and taste: cinnamon, basil, cardamom, cloves, almonds, vanilla, ginger, nutmeg.
Vegetable (tomato, carrot, cucumber, beetroot) or sour fruit juices (citrus, pomegranate, plum) are suitable: basil, marjoram, fennel seeds, saffron.

Do not forget that, although the aromatic oils of many plants used as spices have a relaxing effect when inhaled, spices taken internally have a tonic effect on the digestive tract. This means that the spices stimulate the digestive tract, enhancing the secretion of digestive enzymes, which is useful only for people with a reduced secretory function of digestion.
In a person suffering from high acidity, hypersecretion of pancreatic and liver enzymes, a spice drink can exacerbate or develop diseases such as ulcers, gastritis, colitis, GERD, Crohn disease and many other digestive disorders.
