Long valued as a sweet, slightly sour, yin-nourishing berry, Lan Mei has been prized in folk food therapy as a gentle fruit that supports the eyes, moistens the body, and harmonizes the Liver and Kidney. Its nature is sweet and slightly sour, neutral to slightly cool, making it a mild yet nourishing dried fruit for daily snacking, teas, and congee.

The dried berries are soft and chewy, with a gentle, fruity fragrance. When steeped in hot water, they release a mild, subtly sweet-tart infusion with a soft berry note; when simmered in congee or soup, they soften further and lend a pleasant, jam-like sweetness.
