Dragon Tongue Leaf, Stone Huangpi and Carrot Soup

Why people make this soup

After a cold or a bout of throat inflammation, the cough and phlegm that linger can feel harder to shake than the illness itself. Nourilo put together this soup as a gentle, food-based way to support the body through that recovery phase. The combination of fresh dragon tongue leaf and stone huangpi works to clear accumulated heat in the lungs, while the apricot kernels and honey dates round out the flavour and help soothe the airways. Because the overall nature of this soup is mild rather than strongly cold, it is one of the few respiratory soups that both adults and children can drink comfortably.
