Notes

The written source contains a likely repetition or typo in the soaking instruction, stating “dried lotus seeds” twice; the ingredient list and context indicate that both dried lily bulbs and dried lotus seeds should be soaked. The source does not specify whether to strain the beverage before serving. Its TCM-related health claims are presented as traditional-use information, not established medical treatment.
