This is another of my mom's recipe for a refreshing and healthy drink that could be served chilled or hot. I will have to search and find the species name for the Chinese grass, but in Cantonese, it is pronounced "gum ngun fa." —thedarcsage

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 1 bunch chrysanthemum flowers - 2 or 3 whole flowers
  • 1 special Chinese herb grass
  • 1 liter water
Directions
  1. Boil water. You can make it more or less dilute.
  2. Add the ingredients and boil for 15 minutes max. It is really a small bunch of chrysanthemum flowers - not much.
  3. Pour into individual cups.
  4. Alternatively, just boil some crysanthemum and add honey to taste for a simple, healthy refreshment on a hot day!
