Ingredients

Old Beijing Sour Plum Soup

1. After choosing the required materials, the one I chose is the most classic formula in old Beijing, a simple and healthy combination

2. Look, there are ebony plum, dangshan, licorice, and sweet-scented osmanthus

3. Featured Ume

4. Specially selected high-quality licorice

5. Sweet-scented osmanthus, fragrant and less impurity

6. Seedless hawthorn, tangerine peel

7. Except osmanthus, all other ingredients are put in and soaked for 30 minutes

8. Remember that sweet-scented osmanthus does not need to be soaked. Just wash the sweet-scented osmanthus

9. Fill the pot with water, and then soak the soaked ingredients, ebony plum, tangerine peel, licorice, hawthorn

10. Bring to a boil on high heat first, then turn to low heat and cook for about 40 minutes.

11. Put the sweet-scented osmanthus into the pot for about 10 minutes. Add rock sugar and melt it together

12. If there are more people, you can put 2500-3000ML of water, because the casserole will consume some water during the cooking process, so estimate the amount of water yourself

13. A pot of sweet and sour plum soup is ready

14. The cooked sour plum soup looks appetizing

15. Put it out of a bowl and drink it hot, or put it in a bottle and drink it on ice in the refrigerator. The more appetizing

16. Drink it, the taste is really sweet and sour, very appetizing

17. If you don’t like big bowls, you can take a cup of tea and slowly taste it with your family. . . Ha ha

18. Usually iced. If you want to drink, take it out and drink it. It's really cool + healthy to nourish your stomach! So cool! ! !

Tips:
Rock sugar or brown sugar (add it appropriately according to your taste). Sour plum soup can't be drunk at a time, it can be kept in the refrigerator for a few days (pregnant women should not drink more).
