Chaney root, is also known as Jamaican Sarsaparilla, Chainey Winder, Prickly Green Brier, Saw Brier and Chaney Vine,  and is a perennial vine that is native to South and Central America, as well as the Caribbean. It is collected wild from deep in the Jamaican woods.

Spanish explorers discovered that it was being used as an infusion by natives for a general tonic and it is believed to be an aphrodisiac. It is full of iron and consequently used in cases of anaemia but is also used to help combat the symptoms of fatigue, rheumatism and arthritis. It is a natural analgesic and a blood tonic.

It is best known, perhaps, in the West, as a libido enhancer. To make a tea from it steep 25 grams of the root in a litre of water and simmer for ten minutes or so, cool and strain. It is usually sweetened with honey or sugar as it is bitter but on the plus side you can re-use the root material a couple more times for further batches of the infusion.
