Recipe

Peel the ginger by scraping against the grain with a spoon, slice thinly, then cut the pear without skin into large pieces. Combine with jujubes in a large pot with 3L of water and bring to a boil.
Simmer over medium heat for about 40 minutes, then strain the jujubes and mash them with a ladle. Gently pour hot tea over them to fully extract the juice and natural sweetness.
Cover the pot tightly and simmer over very low heat for an additional 20 minutes. Finally, remove the pear and sliced ginger, and serve the clear, warm tea in individual cups.

Cooking tips

Scraping the ginger with the spoon at an angled angle, opposite to the fiber direction, minimizes waste by preventing the removal of edible flesh.
Boiling the pear with its skin on results in a bitter, astringent aroma and a murky, dark-colored broth. Always peel down to the pure white flesh—this is essential for achieving a clear, visually appealing, and smooth-tasting tea.
