peyotes
Hallucinogenic desert plants
Peyotes is the plural of peyote, a small spineless cactus native to Mexico and the southwestern United States.
The cactus contains mescaline, a psychoactive compound that produces hallucinations and altered states of consciousness.
Peyote has been used in Indigenous religious ceremonies for centuries and remains legal for sacramental use by the Native American Church: The shaman prepared the peyotes for the ritual.
