At present, there are many kinds of milk tea, including bubble tea, Sijiqing and Boba milk tea, osmanthus milk tea, rose milk tea and so on. Tea shops are also endless. There are several famous ones, Yihe Hall. There are many others. Why are there so many milk teas? What I want to tell you is that modern people love to drink milk tea, which can basically replace boiled water. It is understandable that modern people drink too much. After all, all cold source equipment and projects are now in place. Any small family will have a refrigerator, which can make cold products at any time.
Did ancient people have many cold products? What is this? In ancient times, the drink people used to cool off the heat was called "boiled water". In ancient times, "boiled water" was strictly welcomed and spread to every household, and the production method was not difficult. The article "Kyoto Customs" in the Qing Dynasty records that in the dog days, some people drink ice water, and some people cook soups such as perilla leaves, epimedium leaves and licorice, which are called summer soups and are sold on the street. The "perilla leaf" here is perilla leaf. Now Chinese medicine believes that perilla is warm, pungent, cold-dispelling, qi-regulating, phlegm-resolving and cough-relieving. Middle-aged and elderly people and children drink Suye decoction in summer, which has the effect of strengthening the spleen and tonifying the middle energizer. By the Song Dynasty, "boiling water" had become very popular.
Li Qingzhao, a famous poet in Song Dynasty, likes cardamom "boiled water" very much. Cardamom is the fruit of a kind of herb that looks like a banana. It has the function of relieving summer heat. Every summer, Li Qingzhao drinks boiled water of cardamom, which can also be quoted when she is sick. It is said that there is also the role of emotions.
