Schisandra, Goji and Black Mulberry Tea

Why people make this tea

In Korean supermarkets you will see bottled or foil-packed schisandra concentrate, since Korea produces a lot of schisandra. Nourilo notes it is traditionally regarded as helpful for people who feel anxious, sleep poorly with many dreams, or have a nervous, run-down feeling — and it is handy to carry to work. But it is pricey, so if you plan to take it for a while, it is more practical to buy schisandra at a herb shop and brew your own. Steeped with black mulberry and goji, it makes a tea traditionally associated with nourishing the liver, supporting the eyes and easing tiredness.
