First, steam the dried seahorse in the pot for 5 minutes, so that the seahorse becomes softer and can make wine better.

Second, the soaking tank should be cleaned, scalded with hot water for several times (disinfection), cleaned internally, and dried with absorbent paper. No water, the bottle should be sealed.

Third, directly add hippocampus and ginseng, pour grain wine, and seal the bottle (the wine must be pure grain without adding, otherwise the taste will be bad and good ingredients will be wasted. If possible, you can add some Lycium barbarum and velvet antler, which are good warming materials)

5. Keep it at room temperature and away from light. Keep it sealed for about 1 -3 months. Drink 1-3 money every day before going to bed.
