Product Description
Sweet Autumn Cooling Herbal Tea (Liang Cha)
Sweet Autumn Herbal Cooling Tea (also called Liang Cha or Lerng Cha) could be considered the Chinese version of the American South’s sweet tea, but with tremendous benefits for your body.
This blend features six different herbs that cool the body and replenish its fluids when they are depleted. Longan fruit (Long Yan Rou), for example, has a long tradition of being a beauty tonic for Chinese women at the Imperial Court and is still used today to beautify skin, eyes, and nails.
Another note of interest: the tea is naturally sweet because of Luo Han Guo, or dried monkfruit, which is 300 times sweeter than sugar but comes in at zero on the glycemic index and has zero calories and zero carbs!… and thanks to Luo Han Guo’s amazing health benefits of cough relief, colon cleansing, and weight loss, this Chinese herb has long been hailed as “the immortals’ fruit”.

Ingredients
Ingredients in Sweet Autumn Cooling Herbal Tea (Liang Cha)
Dried Monkfruit (Luo Han Guo) – Luo han guo is well-known for its ultra sweet taste. Called the immortals’ fruit, it has been used for centuries as a medicinal herb to nourish the lungs and throat and help promote “longevity”.
Baby Chrysanthemum (Ju Hua) – Comprising only the young buds of chrysanthemum flowers, this natural coolant for the body is great for releasing stress that you’re holding onto, which allows for focus and cooling of the body. Baby chrysanthemum boasts a sweeter and more concentrated tastes compared to the common chrysanthemum.
Dried Asian Pear (Ya Li) – The health benefits of Asian pears are plentiful. They can increase the body’s yin fluid and clear heat, cooling the body. These effects particularly relate to the lung and stomach organs and meridians.
Bitter Almonds (Bei Xing Ren) – These aren’t true almonds, but the kernels of several varieties of apricot that are grown specifically for their seeds. They cannot be eaten raw but are used specifically in Chinese medicine and, after boiled, release biochemicals that clear and nourish the lungs and intestines.
Sweet Almonds (Nan Xing Ren) – Sweet almonds are larger and functionally quite similar to the western almonds we commonly find in markets. Sweet almonds are tastier, and can help brighten and moisturize the skin and hair.
Dried Longan (Long Yan Rou) – High nutritional value, full of vitamins and contains active anti-aging ingredients. Helps to promote restful sleep, replenishing blood and Qi.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Sweet Autumn Cooling Liang Cha used for?
Sweet Autumn Cooling Liang Cha is a traditional Chinese herbal tea formulated to clear heat and reduce internal fire — a common concern during the dry autumn season when the body is prone to excess warmth, dry throat, mild sore throat, and irritability. In TCM, ‘Liang Cha’ literally means ‘cooling tea,’ and this blend supports the body’s balance by dispelling heat toxins and nourishing dryness. It is commonly enjoyed as a seasonal wellness tea to help the body adapt to autumn’s drying climate.
How do you prepare and drink Sweet Autumn Cooling Liang Cha?
To prepare Sweet Autumn Cooling Liang Cha, steep the herbal tea bag or blend in hot water for 5–10 minutes, allowing the herbs to fully infuse before drinking. It is best enjoyed warm rather than piping hot, which is consistent with TCM principles of supporting digestion and the Lung system. For general wellness during the autumn season, 1–2 cups per day is typical, and as with any herbal formula, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner if you are pregnant, nursing, or managing a health condition.
What does ‘Liang Cha’ mean and what herbs are typically in this cooling tea blend?
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, ‘Liang Cha’ (凉茶) translates directly to ‘cooling tea’ and refers to a category of herbal beverages traditionally used in Southern China to clear heat, detoxify, and restore balance during hot or dry weather. Sweet Autumn Cooling Liang Cha typically features herbs known for their heat-clearing and yin-nourishing properties, such as chrysanthemum (ju hua), mulberry leaf (sang ye), and other botanicals suited to the autumn season’s dryness. The ‘sweet’ character of this blend reflects a gentler, more nourishing formulation compared to stronger bitter Liang Cha varieties, making it accessible for everyday seasonal use.
