Ingredients
Scale
1 cup dried lotus seeds
4 cups water
1/2 cup honey (or to taste)
2 tablespoons goji berries (optional)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Soak the lotus seeds: Place the dried lotus seeds in a bowl and cover them with water. Let them soak overnight, or at least for a few hours, to make them tender.
Prepare the drink: Drain the soaked lotus seeds and place them in a pot. Add 4 cups of fresh water and bring it to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Simmer: Once boiling, reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for about 30 minutes. You want the lotus seeds to become soft and tender but still maintain a slight bite.
Add the honey: Once the lotus seeds are ready, stir in the honey while the pot is still warm.
Optional additions: If you're using goji berries or vanilla extract, add them now. Stir to combine, and let the drink simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Serve: You can serve this warm immediately, or if you prefer it cold, let it cool to room temperature and refrigerate it for an hour before serving.
Notes
A comforting and soothing Lotus Seed Honey Drink, perfect for chilly nights or moments of self-care.
