The mixture is prepared by cleaning the specially-chosen vines and adding them and the leaves to water. This is then boiled and reduced for several hours, attended by our shamans who blow their intentions and good wishes (soplada) into it, make prayers to their spirits for good healings to come and singing icaros (sacred healing songs) into the brew during its preparation and in ceremony.
