Traditional Uses

Suan Mei Tang is a classic Beijing-style summer beverage long prepared in Chinese households from smoked plum, hawthorn, and other herbs. In TCM tradition, Wu Mei is traditionally associated with generating fluids and quenching thirst, while hawthorn and tangerine peel are traditionally linked to aiding digestion. Traditionally simmered for hours, this modern no-cook format offers the same familiar flavor through simple steeping.
