Description
Apple Hawthorn Tea is a blended herbal tea built around Shan Zha (山楂, Crataegus pinnatifida), the dried fruit of a classic food-herb (药食同源) botanical long revered in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as a digestive and qi-moving fruit. Combined with red date (红枣), Chen Pi (陈皮, aged tangerine peel), and orange peel (橘皮), this cold-brew-friendly tea bag blend carries the sweet-sour brightness of hawthorn and apple into a gentle, everyday infusion. Its nature is balanced—hawthorn is sour, sweet, and slightly warm—making it a mild yet flavorful companion for daily sipping.

Quality & Sensory
Each tea bag holds a coarse-cut blend of dried hawthorn fruit, red date pieces, and citrus peel. The dry blend shows deep russet and amber tones with a warm, sweet-tart aroma of hawthorn and sun-dried citrus. When brewed—hot or cold—it yields a clear amber-red infusion with a bright, gently sweet-and-sour taste, rounded by the mellow sweetness of red date and the soft citrus lift of Chen Pi and orange peel.
