Lotus Seed, Lily Bulb & Ophiopogon Tea

Why people make this tea

In traditional Chinese food therapy, when the body has what practitioners call “excess heart fire” — a pattern associated with modern stress, overwork, and poor sleep — soothing, moisture-nourishing ingredients are used to bring a sense of calm. This three-ingredient tea has been used for generations by people dealing with a racing mind at night, low-grade irritability, and the feeling of being simultaneously tired and wired. It is gentle enough to drink regularly and makes a nourishing evening ritual.
