Intimate reminder
* About the place of origin? As herbal tea was first developed by Europeans, most of the herbal tea introduced in this paper is imported from Europe and Taiwan Province Province, and can also be bought in some supermarkets or teahouses with more imported food. At present, there are many domestic herbal teas in the domestic tea market, but the varieties are different, so consumers should pay a little attention when choosing.
* How to choose? Pay attention to the color and integrity of herbal tea when purchasing, and try to choose products with fresh and pure color and no impurities. You can smell it if you can. On the one hand, you can feel whether the next taste can be accepted by you, on the other hand, you can smell whether it is fresh. Besides, we must be careful of damp and moldy products.
How about a cup of tea? At present, there is no evidence that herbal tea can't be mixed with scented tea and green tea. However, since herbal tea itself rejects caffeine as a healthy drink, wouldn't it be a waste of efficacy to add tea? Moreover, there is no such habit in tradition, and it seems a bit neither fish nor fowl to mix flowers and ordinary tea together.
* Can you drink it for a long time? No problem! As long as you adapt.
* Is herbal tea seasonal? Herbal tea can be drunk in any season, but the drinking method can be slightly different, such as drinking iced tea in summer and drinking milk in winter.
* Don't make compound herbal tea at will. Different kinds of herbal tea should not be mixed at will without expert's explanation, so as to avoid improper drug compatibility. Because the health care function of each herbal tea is different, you should know more when drinking it, so as to avoid the opposite effect of falling asleep at an inappropriate time.
In addition, if you drink too much for a long time, it will also cause physical discomfort, not to mention herbal tea as a medicine, it is just a health drink.
* If you want to drink sweet herbal tea, you'd better add honey, because honey is also a product of nature, healthy and harmonious, and has the taste of flowers.
* If you feel that the brewed compound herbal tea tastes bad, you can add one or two dried roses. The aroma of roses can make the whole pot of tea mellow and delicious, and because the effect of roses is neutral, it will not conflict with other herbal teas.
* If you want to treat men to herbal tea, but they are not familiar with herbal tea, you can start with herbal tea, which uses root leaves, such as verbena, mint, lemon grass and licorice. Which is more acceptable.
* Pay attention to the nature of flowers and plants when preparing herbal tea by yourself. For example, lavender, which has a sleeping effect, should not be brewed with rosemary. Rosemary can cheer you up. Egg, time is up.
* How to save it? The fresher the herbal tea, the better. In addition to the shelf life at the time of purchase, special attention should be paid to the preservation method after purchase to avoid expiration or moisture deterioration.
Make sure it is sealed. Whether you put it in a bag or a sealed jar, remember to seal the mouth of the bag or jar to avoid getting wet. Keep it in a cool and dry place. Light, moisture and temperature can easily deteriorate herbal tea, so it should be stored in a dry and cool place.
When the consumption rate is slow, it must be put in the refrigerator. If the one-time purchase takes a long time to run out, it is best to put it in the refrigerator to extend the shelf life.
Pay attention to the invasion of insects. Some herbal teas will appear bugs if they are kept for a long time. They are eggs attached to herbal tea and will hatch automatically. These bugs don't interfere with drinking tea. On the contrary, because of the appearance of insects, it is proved that herbal tea is more comfortable to drink without spraying pesticides.
