Drink these four kinds of tea when the weather is cool in summer.

With the arrival of the summer solar term, the heat in midsummer began to show, and many people were troubled by the heat and excessive internal heat. Nutrition experts suggest that in hot summer, people can drink some cool tea, which can not only replenish water, but also clear away heat and fire. So today, Lao Huangli will introduce four kinds of cool tea for everyone.

Baihua herbal tea

Take Flos Chrysanthemi Indici 10g, Flos Nelumbinis 10g, and Flos Jasmini sambac 3g, wash and brew with boiling water, cover with soaking 10min, and drink after cooling. Baihua herbal tea has the functions of dispelling summer heat, cooling and reducing fever. However, people with deficiency-cold constitution and weak spleen and stomach cause diarrhea, and such people should avoid eating.

kuding tea

Kuding tea contains more than two kinds of ingredients beneficial to human body, such as Kuding tea saponin, vitamin C, flavonoids and so on. It tastes fragrant, slightly bitter and slightly sweet, and has many functions, such as clearing away heat, quenching thirst, promoting diuresis, strengthening heart, moistening throat and relieving cough, lowering blood pressure and losing weight, inhibiting cancer, resisting aging, improving eyesight and intelligence, and promoting blood circulation. Known as "health tea", it is suitable for drinking in summer and relieving summer heat.

Lotus seed core tea

Lotus seed core is the turquoise germ in the middle of lotus seeds, which tastes bitter and has very good effects of clearing away heart fire, lowering blood pressure and blood lipid, calming the nerves and strengthening the heart. Using lotus seed core 12g and boiling water to brew offspring tea is more suitable for patients with yin deficiency and excessive fire and insomnia.

Huoxiang summer tea

Wash the leaves of Pogostemon Pogostemonis 10g, Elsholtzia Elsholtzia 10g and Mentha Mint 10g, put them in a pot, add water to submerge the raw materials, decoct for 10min, and drink after cooling. This herbal tea can strengthen the stomach, dispel summer heat and dampness, and is especially suitable for people with deficiency of spleen and stomach and poor gastrointestinal function.

Although it is necessary to eat more "bitterness" to reduce internal heat in summer, in hot weather, in addition to eating cold foods such as bitterness, we should also eat some spicy foods, such as coriander, leek, onion, ginger and garlic. Poria cocos, lentils, coix seed, Alisma orientalis and other materials are very suitable for summer health.
