Historically, cold food was emphasized before the Tang Dynasty, and Qingming was emphasized after the Song Dynasty.

Legend has it that this is in honor of Jie Zi Tui, an important minister of the Duke of Jin, who burned himself while holding a tree in honor of his achievements in the Spring and Autumn Period. Generally from the cold food fire ban to the Qingming fire, it takes three days, and three days in a row to eat only cold food is very uncomfortable. Although fire was forbidden on the cold food festival, alcohol was not, and the practice of drinking to warm oneself was spread. According to the Jin Dynasty Lu "Yecheng Records," "three days after the cold food for sweet cheese." It shows that there was a custom of making and drinking sweet wine syrup on the cold food festival. In the Tang Dynasty, there were many poets who sang poems about drinking wine during the cold food festival.
