Longan Red Date Ginger Tea 桂圓紅棗姜茶
Did I mention I love Longan Red Date Ginger Tea 桂圓紅棗姜茶? Well, I do and I think you will too!There’s not too much you can change with this tea except that you can remove the ginger if you don’t like it. You can also use any kind of sugar you like. You can add coconut jelly 椰果 (yé gǔo) or grass jelly 仙草 (xīan cǎo) or 涼粉 (líang fěn) to make it a nice hot dessert.
