Sour plum soup is a traditional drink with a long history, deeply loved by the ancients. It is said that Emperor Qianlong especially liked to drink sour plum soup, and he had to drink a bowl before and after meals. In the thirty-fourth chapter of "A Dream of Red Mansions", after the male protagonist Jia Baoyu was beaten, he begged Jia's mother to say, "Just yell dry and eat sour plum soup." Qing Dynasty Hao Yixing wrote in "Dumen Zhuzhi Ci" that "the sound of the copper bowl calls in the street, a cup of ice water and plum soup". This passage depicts the crisp and sweet sound of a person selling sour plum soup on the streets of Beijing knocking on the ice cup.
Sour plum soup is not only sweet and sour, it can also serve as an appetizer and replenish water. It is much better than those carbonated drinks.
