My own original recipe.
Prep Time: 10 minutes / Cook Time 30 minutes
Ingredients:
2 liters water
1/3 cup of dried hawthorn berry (you can buy in Chinese grocery store)
1 size kid fist rock sugar
Method:
Bring to boil the water, add the hawthorn berries and boil over high heat for 10 minutes and continue cooking over low heat until the water reduces to become one liter. Serve with ice cube. It can also be saved for a few days in the refrigerator.
You also can brew 4 to 5 dried hawthorns on one cup of boiling water for a few minutes just like you brew tea, then serve.
