BENEFIT OF JIAOGULAN TEA
HOW TO PREPARE JIAOGULAN TEA
Jiaogulan Tea (aka Gynostemma Pentaphyllum) is a herb native to Southern China. The natives from southern China had been extensively using Jiaogulan for hundreds of years as a rejuvenating tonic to both boost their energy levels as well as to relax, relieve exhaustion and sleep better at night. They also used the herb to combat the common cold and immune support.*
Jiaogulan is a plant that grows wild in China. The leaf is used to make medicine. Jiaogulan is sometimes referred to as “Southern Ginseng” because it grows in south-central China and is used in similar ways as ginseng.
If making a pot of tea, add 2 teaspoons( about 4 grams of tea) for the water. Add an extra spoon of tea of the pot. Boil the water separately.
For a cup or mug, add enough dry Jiaogulan leaf to almost cover the bottom of an 8 oz /250 ml drinking mug - about 1 gram. Cover the leaves with boiled water and rinse for about 10 or 15 seconds. Pour off the rinse water to remove any residue or dust.
Add the boiled water to your mug or pot. Allow at least 3 to 5 minutes before drinking. The longer tea is allowed to steep, the greater the extract and concentration of beneficial saponins. It is OK to refill the cup at least once, so potentially you have 200 drinks per 100 grams of tea.
The leaves will hydrate and are a great form of roughage. If some end up in your mouth, we suggest you try eating them. If you want to avoid that situation, remove the leaves before drinking, although this will limit the benefits.
