❤️First let me talk about my visual experience of this cup of golden chrysanthemum:
This cup of golden chrysanthemum is very ornamental. After the flowers are fully soaked, it is even more beautiful when viewed from the bottom of the transparent glass, because when viewed from the bottom or side, the flowers floating in the water are blooming three-dimensionally. I think this The three-dimensional posture is accompanied by the swing of golden petals in the water, swaying and graceful, just like the skirt of a beautiful girl, which is both healthy and eye-catching!
💛️This is my first time to try the products of Beijing Tongrentang, and also my first time to taste the Golden Emperor Chrysanthemum. This box of Golden Emperor Chrysanthemum comes in 30 individual small packages, and each small package contains a complete Golden Thread Emperor Chrysanthemum. And it is carefully and thoughtfully equipped with a small plastic tray to protect the delicate gold wire. A box of 30 servings is really large and affordable.
💚️I observed this package. The brewing method is to use an English logo affixed outside the transparent wrapping on the side of the package. Before tearing off the transparent wrapping, you need to read the English brewing method. Suggestions: do a tea washing process first (first Put the flowers into the cup, pour in 1/3 cup of boiling water, shake gently for a while and pour out the water, then pour in 7/10 cup of boiling water). This is probably to make scented tea more hygienic and safer. According to my observation, every corner of the flower I brewed is very clean without any small black spots. The tea brewed is clear and transparent without any impurities, so I feel that the step of washing the tea can be omitted as appropriate, although the back of the package is also Some possible problems were mentioned, such as discoloration after soaking for a long time, some small black spots on the stamens, etc. These problems have not occurred so far in my soaking.
💜️Please note that when making tea, you need to slowly pour boiling water from the side of the cup, which means "flowing down the side of the cup". Do not simply and roughly pour the boiling water directly on top of the dry flowers, which may damage the shape of the flowers or cause the petals to fall off. ,Affect the appearance. But I just want to try the effect of pouring boiling water on top of the flowers. Wait until the petals are completely soaked and soft before doing this. This is not recommended for dried flowers because dried flowers are brittle and cannot withstand beating. Fill up the water. Practice has proved Tapping the soaked flowers will not affect the beauty, but you can see another scenery: a round hydrangea-like flower tumbling in the water for three and a half weeks and turning around. The shape changes in various ways, which is very beautiful!
💛️It is said that the Golden Imperial Chrysanthemum was once a tribute to Emperor Qianlong. Emperor Qianlong personally gave it to the "Emperor Chrysanthemum", hence the name. Huang not only means the size of the flower, but also its historical origin. Huang and Huang are the same pronunciation, which not only describes the color of the golden chrysanthemum, but also highlights its status. The flower is as beautiful as its name suggests.
❤️I think this golden chrysanthemum tea is very suitable for entertaining guests, especially foreign friends, because the shape of each flower soaked in water is very beautiful. One cup, one flower for each guest, foreign friends will definitely marvel at the Chinese flower tea. The breadth and depth of the culture shocked them both visually and tastefully. At the same time, it introduced the historical story of this scented tea. It was a good tea that could only be drunk by emperors in ancient times. Now everyone can taste the taste of tribute. Of course, the taste of the tribute is super pure, and the fragrance of scented tea is vividly displayed by this cup of golden chrysanthemum. By the way, I recommend foreign friends to buy Yami, haha.
💛️Golden Royal Chrysanthemum can not only be made into tea, but there are many other ways to eat it, such as millet chrysanthemum porridge (yellow "huang" is added with yellow, I made up the name myself haha), making chrysanthemum cakes, or adding petals to white fungus soup or Peach gum, snow swallow, saponin and rice, increase the taste level, enrich nutrition, and act as embellishment.
💙️Golden Chrysanthemum also has many health care effects. It can clear away heat and detoxification, clear the liver and improve eyesight. It is rich in amino acids, vitamins, multiple minerals, and extremely high flavonoids, and has anti-fatigue and anti-aging effects. There is a recipe excerpted from "Cixi and Guangxu Medical Prescriptions". Chrysanthemum petals can be used to make chrysanthemum trillium ointment. The method is very simple, just boil the petals with water until the juice is thickened and add the refined honey. This method is similar to my homemade honey grapefruit tea, except that the grapefruit pulp is replaced by chrysanthemum petals. I think I can consider adding some royal chrysanthemum petals next time I make honey grapefruit tea, so that I can eat more from one flower.
❤️I like this box of golden chrysanthemums so much. I want to make the best use of them. One flower can brew two cups of tea repeatedly. Although the second brewing tastes much weaker than the first cup, it can at least make me drink it every day. Drink an extra glass of water. I also like the refreshing and elegant taste of the second cup. Both the first and second cups taste good.
