Candied Citron Peel, Aged Tangerine Peel and Poria Tea
Traditionally soothes the liver, moves the qi and transforms phlegm
Why people make this tea
Nourilo spotted candied citron peel for sale in the supermarket — the fragrant, sweet kind from Yunnan that brews into a lovely tea. Citron (xiang yuan) is a citrus cousin of the better-known Buddha’s hand (fo shou), and is traditionally used to soothe the liver, move the qi and ease the chest. Paired with aged tangerine peel and poria, it makes a warm, fragrant cup that is friendly to a tight, stuck feeling in the chest and sides.
