Roasted Cassia Seed Tea Jue Ming Zi 500g Canister Herbal Infusion for Daily Brewing

Roasted Cassia Seed Tea, known in TCM as Jue Ming Zi (决明子), from Cassia obtusifolia, the dried mature seed of the cassia plant. The seeds are stir-roasted to mellow their naturally cold nature and develop a mild nutty character. In TCM theory, Jue Ming Zi is sweet, bitter, slightly cold, and traditionally associated with the liver and large intestine channels. Traditionally used in daily herbal infusions, it is often paired with chrysanthemum flowers. Steep in hot water and enjoy as part of a balanced wellness routine.

Traditional Uses

In traditional Chinese practice, roasted Jue Ming Zi has long been prepared as a simple daily infusion, often steeped alone or with chrysanthemum and goji berries. Folk tradition also uses the seeds in congee and light decoctions, and the roasted form is preferred for everyday brewing because heating is traditionally believed to soften its cooling nature. It remains a common household and teahouse herb, especially in spring and summer.
