American Ginseng, Goji Berry and Ophiopogon Tea

Why people make this tea

If you regularly stay up past midnight — whether for work, study, or caregiving — you may notice familiar signs of what traditional Chinese food therapy calls “yin deficiency”: a persistently dry mouth, a throat that feels parched no matter how much water you drink, gums that feel slightly swollen or tender, or the occasional mouth ulcer. This gentle three-ingredient tea addresses exactly those symptoms. American ginseng is mild yet effective, goji berries add a natural sweetness and colour, and ophiopogon root provides the deep moistening action that makes this tea genuinely refreshing. It is light enough to drink regularly and simple enough to prepare on a busy evening.
