Sour plum soup is a traditional refreshing beverage in old Beijing. In the hot season, most people buy ebony plums to make them themselves (you can also use bayberry instead of ebony plums), put some sugar in it to remove the sourness, and drink it on ice. The raw materials of sour plum soup are ebony, hawthorn, sweet-scented osmanthus, licorice and rock sugar.
