The legend of Sugar-Coated Berry:

What about Song Guangzong in the Southern Song Dynasty? During the reign of Shao Xi in the Southern Song Dynasty, Huang Guifei, the favorite of Song Guangzong, suffered from a strange disease. She suddenly became sallow and emaciated and didn't want to eat. The doctor used many expensive drugs, but none of them were effective. Seeing that the imperial concubine became seriously ill day by day, the emperor had no choice but to post a list of famous doctors. A quack revealed the list and entered the palace. After feeling the pulse of the imperial concubine, he said, "As long as you boil' sugar Qiu Zi' (hawthorn) with brown sugar and eat 5 ~ 10 before meals, you will be fine after half a month." After the imperial concubine took this prescription, she recovered as scheduled. So I'm happy, and so is my life. Later, this sour, crisp and sweet hawthorn spread to the people and became a sugar-coated gourd.

Moreover, the climate in winter is dry, the wine and meat are spicy and easy to consume yin, and the hawthorn crystal sugar is sour and sweet, which is the aftercare of "nourishing yang in spring and summer and nourishing yin in autumn and winter"; Hawthorn has the function of breaking qi and dispersing blood stasis. For dysmenorrhea, postpartum lochia and hernia caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis, hawthorn candied haws can be often eaten. Not only that, modern research has proved that hawthorn has a good effect of lowering blood pressure and blood lipid, so long-term consumption can prevent hypertension, hyperlipidemia and coronary heart disease.
