Freeze-Dried Apple Rings (Malus domestica) — Unsweetened Dried Fruit for Tea & Soup

Freeze-Dried Apple Rings (Malus domestica) are the dried fruit slices of the cultivated apple, known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Píng Guǒ (苹果). Prepared by FD freeze-drying, these unsweetened rings preserve the apple's natural color, aroma, and gentle sweetness. In TCM food therapy, apple is considered sweet and slightly cool, traditionally used to support body fluids, harmonize the stomach, and refresh the spirit, making it a mild and pleasant food herb for daily nourishment.

As a tea, the rings are brewed alone or blended with chrysanthemum and rock sugar for a light, mildly sweet infusion.
