Mulberry Leaf & Double Melon Tea Bags (桑叶双瓜茶) — Mulberry Leaf, Bitter Melon & Winter Melon Herbal Blend, 20 Pyramid Bags

Mulberry Leaf & Double Melon Tea (桑叶双瓜茶, Sāng Yè Shuāng Guā Chá) is a blended herbal tea built on three traditional food-herb botanicals: Mulberry Leaf (Morus alba, Sāng Yè), Bitter Melon (Momordica charantia, Kǔ Guā), and Winter Melon (Benincasa hispida, Dōng Guā). In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this trio has long been prized as a cooling, dryness-clearing, and fluid-balancing combination — Mulberry Leaf is traditionally used to disperse wind-heat and gently clear the Lung and Liver, Bitter Melon is valued as a bitter, cold herb that clears heat and supports digestion, and Winter Melon is a mild, sweet-cool food herb traditionally used to promote fluid movement and lighten the body. Together they form a light, refreshing daily infusion suited to warm seasons and everyday wellness routines.

Quality & Sensory

Each pyramid bag holds coarsely cut pieces of dried mulberry leaf, bitter melon, and winter melon, keeping the botanical structure visible rather than reducing it to fine dust. The dry blend carries a fresh, green-leaf aroma with a faint vegetal sweetness from the melon pieces. On brewing, the liquor turns a pale golden-green and releases a light, clean taste: the mulberry leaf contributes a soft herbal top note, the bitter melon adds a gentle bitterness that fades into a lingering coolness, and the winter melon rounds the cup with a mild, subtly sweet finish. Cold-brewed, the infusion is softer and more refreshing; hot-brewed, the bitterness and aroma come forward more clearly.

Traditional Uses

In folk herbal practice, Mulberry Leaf is decocted as a light tea during spring and early summer, often paired with chrysanthemum or goji berry, to accompany seasonal transitions. Bitter Melon has long been cooked into soups and stir-fries in southern Chinese home kitchens, and its dried slices are also simmered as a bitter, cooling tea. Winter Melon is a classic soup ingredient — simmered with barley or job's tears in summer broths — and its dried pieces are brewed as a mild, sweet daily drink. This blend brings the three together in the simplest folk format: a tea bag dropped into hot or cold water, steeped for a few minutes, and sipped through the day.
