Perilla Leaf Drink With Rock Sugar Recipe by Minh Hayes
 Minh Hayes @Minh_0929 California United States Week 21: Traditional Folk Remedy For a long time, I’ve heard that drinking perilla leaf tea can help with weight loss and may inhibit tyrosinase and melanin production, leading to brighter, more radiant skin. We have an abundance of perilla growing at home, and with the hot weather, the leaves were starting to wilt. So I decided to harvest them all and make a refreshing drink. I also added cordyceps and bird’s nest to help boost respiratory immunity during the hot season.

You can add lychee syrup if you’d like or lychee juice, but I didn’t do that because I wanted to keep the sugars at a minimum. It looks so pretty and adding some whole lychees takes this drink to the next level. I used fresh lychees but using canned will be just as great. 👍 Mish Litchi Drink/ Litchi Juice Litchi Drink/ Litchi Juice It is a very healthy drink. Here I use sugar powder.

Moumita Nandi Sake Lees Hot Drink With Brown Sugar & Ginger Syrup Sake Lees Hot Drink With Brown Sugar & Ginger Syrup I fell in love with the Brown Sugar & Ginger Syrup recipe -Adding the syrup this way instead of directly adding ginger makes it smoother, and you get a rich after-taste, which, along with its warmth, is totally addictive. Thanks for the wonderful recipe. If the sake lees aren't dissolving, put them through a tea strainer. Adjust the amounts of all the ingredients as you like. If you don't like sake lees you can make this without them.
