It is a classic companion to goji berry (枸杞) and red jujube (红枣) in daily teas and seasonal nourishment formulas, and is often simmered with lotus seed, lily bulb, or silver ear for gentle evening tonics. As a tea, it is brewed alone or blended for a warm, honeyed infusion enjoyed through cooler seasons.
