Tea and the Solar Terms

Tea Talk on the Solar Terms - Frost's Descent

It's cold before frost and cold after snow.
As the name suggests, Frost's Descent signifies the approaching cold weather and the onset of frost.
The "Frost's Descent" solar term is a good time for nourishing the body. There is a saying that "nourishing the body during Frost's Descent is worse than nourishing it during winter." The focus should be on keeping warm, moisturizing, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and attention should be paid to keeping the stomach warm.

Tea drinking suggestions?


1. Pu-erh tea: The temperature difference between day and night is large during the Frost's Descent period, making it easy to catch a cold. Pu-erh tea is a high-calorie tea that can warm the body and prevent colds.
2. Black tea: It can refresh and replenish energy. As the weather cools in autumn, the body consumes energy quickly and is prone to fatigue. Drinking more black tea can help. Black tea has the highest sugar content of all types of tea. Sugar can effectively replenish energy lost.

Dietary recommendations?
Sweet potatoes, yams, lotus roots, and water chestnuts are all foods suitable for this season.
In addition, you can eat more foods such as lilies, honey, sesame seeds, and walnuts, and drink suitable teas for health maintenance, all of which have health benefits.

The aroma of tea is refreshing and pleasant, filling the elegant room with fragrance and calming the mind.
