- Add wolfberries, chrysanthemun flowers and powdered green tea to water and boil for 5 min.
- Strain and let water to cool.
- Add honey to taste to cooled drink.
- You may want to place chrysanthemun flowers in a muslin/cheese cloth so that you may consume the wolfberries which are good to the eyes.
- You may use rock sugar in place of honey but I find honey healthier.
