Almond tea is a kind of flavor snack introduced to the folk from the palace. It was mentioned in "Dream of Red Mansions" that in the 54th episode, Jia's mother felt a little hungry while watching the fireworks on the Lantern Festival night. The old lady did not choose the duck porridge carefully prepared for her by Sister Feng and the jujube for her wife Instead of picking the light almond tea for the japonica rice porridge. Faced with so many delicacies, why does Jia Mu prefer almond tea?
The almond tea that Jia's mother drinks is made from sweet almonds and glutinous rice. Sweet almonds, commonly known as southern apricots, have a slightly sweet taste. They are often eaten as candy biscuits, which can nourish the lungs, relieve cough and reduce phlegm. The previous chapter also mentioned that almonds are good for nourishing the lungs. Glutinous rice is also called glutinous rice. It is sweet and warm, and can nourish the body's righteousness and warm the spleen and stomach. After eating glutinous rice, the whole body will get fever, which can not only keep out the cold, but also has a nourishing effect. This shows that Jia's choice of almond tea is not accidental. "

Tips:
1. Almond itself contains a lot of various lipids and trace elements, as well as nutrients. It can make human skin moist and shiny. At the same time, it also has a lot of vitamin E, which can resist oxidation and prevent various factors. The damage to the face can achieve a very good effect of removing spots and delay the aging of human skin.

2. The glutinous rice needs to be soaked for 3-4 hours in advance to make the glutinous rice absorb enough water.

3. Seasoning with rock sugar can make the taste sweet, sweet and not greasy.

4. Beijing has some snacks named after "tea", such as noodle tea, tea soup, almond tea, etc., which are not tea but called tea. Because these kinds of soups and paste-like foods, the most particular way to eat them is not to use a spoon, but to drink them directly from the bowl like tea, so they are named after tea.
