4) Black Dates Tea (Amy Beh's)

After giving birth, the new mother is believed to have a lot of 'wind' in the stomach.  To avoid getting more wind, and to help to get rid of this, a special drink can be made for her to drink instead of always drinking plain hot water.  It is not advisable to drink anything cold during this time.

12 red dates , pitted
15 black dates
15g dried longan flesh
20g tong sam
1.5g litres water
