A Unique Way to Enjoy Tea

Tea News · Oct 07, 2025

 Chinese people have never limited themselves to drinking tea plain. On the contrary, many "ingredients" that pair well with tea often become great helpers in adjusting flavor and promoting health. Even Pu'er tea, a representative of "plain drinking," has many things added to it.

Ripe Pu'er + Honey


Let the brewed ripe Pu'er tea cool slightly, then add honey. The tea tastes very smooth and sweet but not cloying. Since ripe Pu'er has a mild nature, adding honey can also nourish and protect the stomach and help cleanse the intestines.

Ripe Pu'er + Chrysanthemum, Wolfberry


The brewing method is very simple: just put Pu'er tea leaves, chrysanthemum, and wolfberry together and brew. It tastes refreshing and fragrant.

Ripe Pu'er + Rose Tea/Osmanthus


Adding floral tea to ripe Pu'er not only enhances the aroma but also beautifies. Rose or osmanthus are generally chosen. After brewing, the distinctive aged aroma of ripe Pu'er intertwines with the floral fragrance, making the tea instantly romantic and soft.

Ripe Pu'er + Dried Tangerine Peel


Adding dried tangerine peel to ripe Pu'er is a good method for soothing the throat and clearing phlegm in winter, although the tea taste is slightly bitter. Those who like it find it uniquely flavorful.

Ripe Pu'er + Milk


Yes, it's about making a cup of Pu'er milk tea! Don't think that milk tea can only be made with red tea. In fact, milk tea made with ripe Pu'er has a mellow, smooth, and very pleasant taste!

Raw Pu'er + Ice Cubes


Many might ask, after hearing so many "additions" for ripe tea, what about raw tea? This is mainly because ripe tea, after fermentation, has a much milder nature, similar to the "king of versatility" red tea. If we must name something for raw tea, there is one: raw Pu'er + ice cubes. (Except for those who prefer strong flavors). Adding ice cubes means cold brewing the Pu'er tea, generally using raw tea. It tastes cool and sweet, very effective for quenching thirst, preventing heatstroke, and refreshing the mind, making it ideal for drinking in hot weather. However, because the tea is cool, those with stomach issues or a cold constitution should not overindulge.
