Gynura Bicolor Tea (Zi Bei Tian Kui Tea)
traditionally associated with clearing summer heat, nourishing the blood, and supporting digestion
Why people make this tea
Gynura bicolor (known as zi bei tian kui in Cantonese food culture) is a leafy plant with deep green upper surfaces and striking purple undersides. It brews into a vivid, jewel-red tea — one sip of the sweet-sour, brilliantly coloured brew and the heat of the day seems to lift. It has been part of Cantonese herbal cuisine for generations, appreciated not only for its cooling effect in hot weather but also for its nutritional profile.
