🧘♂️ INTRODUCTION
Imagine reaching the age of 95 with the energy, digestion, and vitality of someone decades younger. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), health and youthfulness aren’t just about genetics — they’re about daily rituals that support the body’s natural detox and balance.
This warm tonic — brewed from roots, berries, and citrus — is believed to support the liver (Gan) and digestive system (Pi and Wei), which are central to vitality in TCM. It’s deeply hydrating, anti-inflammatory, immune-supporting, and surprisingly delicious.
And yes — it’s easy enough to make daily.

🌍 ORIGIN & CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE
This drink is inspired by a blend of ancient Chinese herbal wisdom and modern wellness trends. For centuries, Chinese doctors and herbalists have recommended daily warm tonics made from ingredients like ginger, goji berries, turmeric, and citrus peel to promote Qi (vital energy) and protect internal organs.
In TCM, the liver is responsible for the smooth flow of emotions and energy, while the gut (spleen/stomach) is the root of postnatal vitality. Maintaining their health is considered the key to longevity, balance, and even emotional clarity.
