Product Description

Asparagus (Chinese Asparagus) or Tian Men Dong is a treasured herb enjoyed as a refreshing and restorative tea. With its mild sweetness layered with distinctive bitter notes and a cool, cleansing finish, this tea offers a sophisticated taste experience that both relaxes and rejuvenates.

In Traditional Chinese Herbalism, Chinese Asparagus is renowned for its ability to enter the Kidney and Lung systems, where it nourishes Yin Jing, generates vital fluids, and moistens the Lungs. It also helps clear internal heat and cool the body, offering balance during times of dryness, stress, or excess warmth. Many tea drinkers appreciate it as a refreshing choice that brings comfort and clarity, especially when seeking gentle hydration and a sense of calm.

Both a wellness tonic and a soothing daily beverage, this tea invites you to sip slowly, replenish deeply, and enjoy harmony in each cup.

Flavor: Mildly sweet with a pleasant bitterness and a refreshingly cool finish — both soothing and uplifting

Directions: Add the amount of botanicals per a recipe, as desired, or as directed by a health practitioner. The proper way of extracting botanicals depends on parts used. Flowers, fruits and leaves can usually be steeped or decocted (boiling over fire) while stems, barks and roots typically require decocting.

In a Desktop Botanical Garden™ Glass Tea & Elixir Maker, add 1 part botanical(s) and 5-8 parts water, steep or decoct for 5-20 minutes. You can boil water directly in the Elixir Maker. Repeat this process for 2nd or 3rd extraction until all active constituents have been extracted.

Latin Name: Asparagus cochinchinensis

Pin Yin: Tian Men Dong
