The hottest dog days of the year are coming, so do you know what tea you should drink in dog days? I'd like to introduce some teas for keeping healthy and relieving summer heat to you, hoping to help you!

What health tea do you drink in dog days to relieve summer heat?

Summer is a season full of enthusiasm, however, the scorching sun in summer is like a flame, which makes the earth like a steamer and breathless. At high temperature, the human body sweats badly, and body fluids are lost too much and too quickly. If it is not replenished in time, it is likely to suffer from heatstroke or dehydration. Drinking tea in summer is an excellent way to replenish water in the body. A cup of fragrant tea can not only bring you a little coolness, but also relieve summer fatigue.

However, not everyone can drink the same kind of tea. Summer health tea should vary from person to person, and people with different constitutions should pay attention to drinking tea. People with hot constitution should drink herbal tea, such as Kuding tea, "Biluochun" and Tieguanyin. People with deficiency and cold constitution should drink warm tea, such as Pu 'er cooked tea, Jin Junmei and Zhengshan race.
