Herbal tea is the general name of Han Chinese herbal beverages. Guangdong herbal tea is the representative of Han traditional herbal tea culture. Herbal tea is a drink made by decoction of Chinese herbal medicines that have cold properties and can relieve heat in the human body. It can eliminate the heat in the body in summer or treat throat pain and other diseases caused by dryness in winter.

Herbal tea has a long history. Ge Hong, a Taoist medical scientist from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, came to Lingnan in 306 AD. Due to the prevalence of miasma at that time, he was able to study various medicines for febrile diseases in Lingnan. The medical monographs left by Ge Hong and the rich experience of the working people in the long-term prevention and treatment of diseases summarized by later Lingnan temperate doctors formed the herbal tea with profound Lingnan cultural heritage of the Han people. Its formula and terminology have been passed down from generation to generation.

Those with a cold constitution should not drink too much, and pregnant women and children should not drink herbal tea.
