Ancient Ginger Tea
The Original

The Original

In TCM, the combination of ginger, jujube, and pure brown sugar creates a harmonious blend that supports the body's balance and vitality. Here's how each ingredient contributes: Ginger: Known as a warming herb, ginger dispels cold and dampness, stimulates Yang energy, and promotes blood circulation. It supports digestive health by enhancing Qi flow in the stomach and intestines, making it a go-to remedy for easing bloating and digestive discomfort. Jujube (Chinese Date): This sweet fruit nourishes the spleen and stomach, tonifies Qi, and supports blood production. Its calming properties also help ease stress and promote relaxation. Pure Brown Sugar: In TCM, it is believed to tonify the blood and harmonize the stomach. The "Chocolate from the East" enhances energy levels, particularly for those experiencing fatigue or blood deficiency. Together, these ingredients align with TCM principles of balancing Yin and Yang, invigorating Qi, and supporting the body's natural resilience against external and internal imbalances. This tea is especially recommended for individuals with a cold constitution, during cooler seasons, or as a comforting ritual for overall well-being

Ancient Ginger Tea

Why We Selected It

We chose Ancient Ginger Tea for its exceptional origin, authentic preparation, and natural health benefits. Grown in the high-altitude Dayao Mountains of China, this tea is crafted with care using traditional Yao medicine methods like the ‘Nine Steams and Nine Sun-dries.’ These time-honored practices preserve its unparalleled flavor and purity.

Ancient Ginger Tea combines sun-dried ginger, caramel-like pure brown sugar (known as "Chocolate from the East"), and jujube, a fruit prized for its rich nutrients and natural sweetness. Together, these ingredients create a warming, comforting tea that supports circulation, digestion, and energy balance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Ancient Ginger Tea

Ginger, with its unique gingerols, stimulates mucus secretion, enhances protein absorption, and promotes intestinal motility. This helps maintain smooth digestion and alleviates digestive discomfort. The natural antifungal properties of gingerols also strengthen gastrointestinal health. Additionally, the inclusion of jujube (a red fruit also known as Chinese date) provides essential vitamins and minerals, further supporting digestive balance and well-being.

When combined with pure brown sugar, ginger improves blood circulation and helps regulate menstrual cycles. It is particularly effective in alleviating menstrual pain by reducing prostaglandin levels, which are responsible for uterine cramps. Drinking this tea three days before menstruation can also help stabilize mood and ease premenstrual tension, offering a natural way to support hormonal balance and comfort.

This traditional artisanal method, part of a centuries-old oral tradition passed down through Yao medicine, involves steaming and sun-drying ginger multiple times to intensify its active compounds and concentrate its benefits.

Cellar Aging: The ginger is stored in underground cellars for over 100 days to become “ginger mother.” This process enhances its gingerols, increasing their ability to generate warmth and boost metabolism. This unique method preserves the natural richness of ginger while amplifying its warming and revitalizing properties.

"Chocolate from the East": Why Choose Pure Brown Sugar?
Pure brown sugar is much more than a sweetener. Unlike refined sugar, it is minimally processed, retaining its natural minerals and iron, which are essential for sustained energy and overall well-being. Its rich, caramelized flavor has earned it the nickname "Chocolate from the East."

Benefits Include:

  • Sustained Energy: Promotes stable blood sugar levels and a gradual energy release.
  • Nutritional Richness: A natural source of iron and essential minerals.
  • Minimal Processing: Free from bleaching and chemical additives, preserving its natural purity.
  • Exceptional Flavor: Adds a deep, gourmet touch to your Ginger Tea with its caramel-like taste.
