Ophiopogon, Mulberry, Goji & Apple Tea

Why people make this tea

When the weather turns dry and many people find themselves troubled by a dry throat and a sticky, dry cough, Nourilo turns to this simple brew. Mulberry, goji and yin-nourishing ophiopogon pair beautifully with fresh apple for a tea that is soothing, moistening and easy to make any day of the week.

Method

  1. Rinse and soak the ophiopogon, mulberry and goji; scrub the apples clean (skin on), then cut and core.
  2. Put everything in a pot with 2.1 L of water.
  3. Boil 20 minutes until reduced to 0.9–1.2 L. Serve.

Nourilo’s Tips

This tea is clear, sweet and tasty, fine for young and old. Besides supporting the stomach and moistening the lung, it is good for the liver and kidney and is associated with nourishing the complexion — a fine everyday wellness brew.
