In the summer of Beijing, the sun is like fire, and at the same time it has ignited the local flavor of Beijing-bean juice. Recently, in the second entrance of Beixinqiao, in front of the newly moved Dongwai bean juice factory, there is a lot of traffic every day. There are more and more people queuing up to buy bean juice in the morning. A few days ago, the daily output of bean juice was three or four thousand kilograms, and it was only sold at 10 in the morning, and the bottom of the tank was seen. As the manufacturers increased their output in time, the contradiction between supply and demand was alleviated.

Bean juice, a unique local flavor in Beijing, rose in Qianlong 18 with a history of more than 200 years. Old Beijingers drink bean juice, which has almost become their patent, but young people drink very little. It is said that it is influenced by all kinds of foreign drinks in the modern market. In addition, the number of people who drink soybean juice in the past one to summer has also decreased. Nowadays, it is different, especially today when people's health awareness is constantly improving, and some young and middle-aged people also join the ranks of drinking bean juice.

What are the benefits of drinking bean juice? Old Beijingers who lined up to fill the bean juice said with one voice: Drinking bean juice can quench thirst, relieve fire, stimulate appetite and help digestion ... The quality of bean juice is excellent, and its main ingredient is round mung beans with sweet and cool taste. After filtering out starch, the rest is bean juice. This sour, My Sweetie, and slightly fermented bean juice has a high nutritional value. According to research, soybean juice is rich in protein and vitamin C, and its nutrition is not inferior to yogurt. Drinking bean juice can relieve summer heat and thirst in summer, clear heat and warm yang in winter, and it has the advantages of detoxification and dryness in all seasons, and it is cheap and good.

There are many ways to drink bean juice, some are raw, some are cooked, some are hot and hot, and some are cooked and cooled before drinking. Old Beijingers pay attention to drinking hot bean juice, eating crispy inby and spicy shredded mustard, and they feel comfortable after drinking. Let me remind you here that it is best to turn off the fire when boiling the bean juice, and let the bean juice contain green soybean milk, which is the best time for the quality and taste of the bean juice. If the pot is boiled, the green soybean milk will become hemp tofu.

Bean juice is a microcosm of Beijing's food culture. Bean juice is such a Beijing-style snack. It is unattractive and not expensive, but it tastes eternal and mellow. Not only Beijingers love this taste, but also Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan compatriots and overseas Chinese who are originally from Beijing are very fond of bean juice.

Bean juice has a long history. Beijing's food culture atmosphere is very strong. In the snack bar, you can enjoy the genre paintings of stalls such as old Beijing bean juice a hundred years ago. In the pear garden, there is not only the well-known drama "The Story of Bean Juice", but also many famous actors who love to drink bean juice. It is said that Mei Lanfang, a master of drama performance, likes to drink bean juice. When he was in Shanghai, Yan Huizhu, a disciple, went to Shanghai from Beijing to perform, and flew it to Shanghai in a big bottle of bean juice with a weight of four pounds, which was a good story for a while.
