Black Plum = 乌梅 = Antiaging = Chinese Royal Family

Get some black plum from the chinese medical hall. This plum is very high in antioxidant and its better than taking pills. It also help to prevent aging. Drink twice a week to prevent sore throat and beautify your skin. Please get from medical hall not from TIBITS shop OK... 性温味酸,大肠经,有敛肺、开胃、生津止咳、清热等功能。


When it combines with different herbs, it has different effect.
For tired eyes:
1/2 洛神花, 3 乌梅,3 leaves 菩提叶. Put all ingredients into 500ml of water. Boil for 10 mins and add some rock sugar to taste.

For Beauty skin & remove bad breath:
3 乌梅. Boil them for 10mins with 500ml water and add a teaspoon of Osamanthus flower 桂花。 This is known as Gui Hua Wu Mei Tea since Chinese Dynasty drank by Royal Family like ....Emperor only :D

Serious Mouth Ulcer, heatiness:
300gram green beans, 10 gram 乌梅. Boil with small fire for 1/2 an hour. Add a bit rock sugar. Just drink the water. Enough for one bowl. Do not eat the beans.

Thanks, Lao Shi.

Just got the 乌梅 from Eu Yan Sang.
Bought 2 liang = $2. Will try to boil it with Osamanthus flower tomorrow.

I went to Bugis OG - Grandma Secret Receipy to have some local food, like their tea - 乌梅 + San Zha tea....... very very refreshing.

Lao shi, thank you for sharing with us the 乌梅's properties.

Good day.

Hi Anonymous April 14, 2009 1:56 PM,

You may get the Osamanthus flower from the Fu Lu Shou Complex basement, there's a shop near the entrance which sells dried foods like chinese mushrooms, white fungus, black fungus, red dates....etc. It sells Osamanthus flower, and many others flowers to make floral tea. I visit this shop very often as it has very very fresh stock.

Hope you will find the osamanthus flower soon.

Regards,
Yi Ling

Lao Shi, the antiage set is really good and i love it. Wonder you will have sun block to close the loop.

I have tried your lavendula charcoal water, is the best flora water i ever tried.
