Moon water in a narrow sense is rice wine water distilled with alcohol. Broadly speaking, moon water covers a wide range, mainly all kinds of foods that are helpful for maternal health care during confinement. There are two common ways to make lunar water:

First boil three bottles of rice wine into one bottle. The alcohol content is only 0.5%. The method is to cook with high fire first, and then cook a little with low fire. Principle: During confinement, the daily life of general parturients will change. For example, folk taboos are not suitable for alcoholic diet, but a small amount of alcohol is needed to help blood circulation and promote metabolism. Therefore, after the self-made distillation method of moon water (rice wine water), alcohol must be boiled and evaporated first, and then concentrated into nutrients containing rice and a small amount of alcohol, which is convenient for cooking, so the correct moon water (rice wine water) is correct.

The second is red bean water or black bean water. Although the alcohol content of rice wine water is very low, some mothers are allergic to alcohol. Drink black bean water or red bean water instead. Method: Just wash and fry the bought black beans or red beans (don't use strong fire), or buy (ready-made) and cook them into tea. Principle: Black beans or red beans have the function of detoxification and diuresis, which can eliminate edema and help discharge lochia. And black beans can maintain our hair and make it black.
