Is there any special summer food to share during the summer vacation?

The hot summer season is a prelude to the dog days. At this time, the weather is hot, and people are prone to feel chest tightness, shortness of breath and thirst, which is the so-called "bitter summer". Let's take a look at those refreshing and pleasant summer foods!

First, eat mutton and drink mutton soup.

Some people think it's hot in summer and it's not bad to drink hot mutton soup, but the fact is just the opposite. There is a good saying: "A bowl of soup helps sheep, and it doesn't need a doctor". Eating mutton in summer can help people sweat better, thus achieving the functions of eliminating dampness, dispelling cold and strengthening yang. I went back to drink mutton soup when I felt particularly hot in the summer a few years ago. I broke out in a sweat happily and felt very cool.

Second, drink mung bean porridge and mung bean water.

Mung beans have the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, relieving summer heat and promoting diuresis, and relieving stranguria. Regular consumption can effectively promote fluid production, clear away heat and prevent heatstroke. Generally, in summer, you will drink mung bean porridge for breakfast in the morning, prepare a pot of mung bean water to drink during the day, or add a proper amount of sugar to mung bean water to freeze it into popsicles, which has a very good effect on relieving summer heat. However, it must be noted that people who are originally drinking Chinese medicine can't drink mung bean water, otherwise it is an antidote.

Third, eat brown sugar ice powder.

Ice powder is a popular summer food in Sichuan and Chongqing, and also a popular snack among online celebrities in recent years. Generally, it is hand-made with ice powder seeds, with ice syrup, hawthorn slices, peanuts and raisins. When you feel too hot in summer, you will choose to eat some ice powder, especially when you eat hot pot. Ice powder is simple to make, refreshing and delicious, and it is definitely the best choice for cooling off in summer.

Fourth, four fruit soups

Four fruit soup is a snack that originated in southern Fujian. I tasted this snack when I traveled to Fujian three years ago, and I was amazed. In traditional four fruit soup, gypsum was the main ingredient, with lotus seeds, coix seed and mung beans, and later it developed into more than ten kinds of small ingredients such as taro, watermelon, mango and Adazi. It is hot in summer in Fujian, and I often feel chest tightness and shortness of breath when traveling. Drinking some four fruit soup can relieve the discomfort caused by the summer heat.

The above is the summer food I have eaten in the light summer season. It is not only delicious, but also has a good effect of relieving summer heat. Please try it!
