兩個月的忙碌生活終於結束了，現在想要來點休閒的下午茶來緩和之前匆忙的情緒。@brewed.hk 位於上環禧利街，距離上環地鐵站不遠，從地鐵站步行五分鐘就到了。假日人流不算多，我和朋友獨享了靠窗的座位，採光很好，格外的悠閒自在。這裡的食物品項比一般咖啡廳豐富，使用高質的食材做出自家製美食、甜品和特色飲料等。好喜歡他們的日本飛驒和牛菠蘿漢堡配咕嚕醬 (HKD148)，和牛紮實又很厚，咕嚕醬味道有點像草莓果醬呢，十分開胃可口。精選早餐 (HKD128) 中的雞肉香腸有別一般傳統口味，肉中的油烤至融化，肉汁爆裂在口中，真是好吃。點了三款甜點：伯爵茶朱古力卷蛋 (HKD48)、棉花糖焗牛角包配朱古力脆脆 (HKD30)及英式鬆餅 2pcs (HKD40)，當中卷蛋最深得我喜歡，伯爵茶味道表現不錯，沒有被朱古力味道蓋了，加甜而不膩的順口伯爵茶鮮奶油更讓人喜歡。如你不是咖啡愛好者，不妨試試 Houjicha Tea Latte (HKD42)，綿密的奶泡是美好的開始，焙茶的濃度恰恰好，喝完每一口飄來淡淡的焙茶香。

Iced Cappuccino (HKD46)

四肢痕要養血潤膚
周小姐：「每逢秋冬我的四肢就會痕癢，忍不住不斷抓，嚴重時皮膚好像蛇皮一樣有小片狀，有時痕癢得難以入睡。」

Nourish the blood and moisten the skin to relieve itchy limbs
“My arms and legs itch quite often during the autumn and winter and I can’t help but to scratch them. Sometimes it might even peel like snakeskin. I can’t even sleep in peace.”

CheckCheckCin: Itchy and dry scale-like skin, even feeling ‘prickly’ when touched – this condition, according to the Chinese Medicine theories, is ‘ji fu jia cuo’, or squamous and dry skin in English. It often happens to individuals who are weak in the blood and qi, for instance, those with the blood-deficient body constitution. The other accompanying symptoms are – pale complexion, dry mouth, palpitation, dizziness, hair fall, fragile nails, limb numbness, as well as dry and hard stools.

The blood and qi deficiency will disrupt the circulation of fluid to the skin, causing the skin to feel dry and itchy. In order to improve the symptoms, we need to replenish the blood to hydrate the skin, as well as nourish the yin and bodily fluid. This will help improve blood circulation, and hence relieve the itch.

Consider eating red dates, angelica root, fresh Rehmannia glutinosa (‘sheng di’), processed Rehmannia glutinosa (‘shu di’), Astragalus root, Codonopsis root, black beans and red beans. Avoid eating foods that are stimulating and avoid alcohol; do not bathe using water at a high temperature. Remember to apply a layer of moisturizing lotion on the body to relieve the itch on the skin.

This tea can be re-brewed until flavour weakens. For best results, drink consecutively for 2-3 days. Two weeks for a treatment.

【秋季養生】治眼乾要懂得開源節流

⭐「開源」養陰潤燥增加淚液分泌
⭐「節流」減少過度用眼過勞熬夜
#星期三CheckCheckMail

眼乾澀要養陰潤燥
打工仔：「每天對著電腦工作八小時，眼睛常感乾澀，一支眼藥水幾天就用完，怎麼辦？」

CheckCheckCin：長期使用電腦的確容易導致眼乾目赤，要注意眼睛乾澀情況會否越來越嚴重，因為踏入秋季，秋燥會使身體津液流失，如果加上熬夜、多吃辛辣煎炸食物，就容易令身體陰虧血虛，雙眼容易出現乾澀、疲勞、痕癢、分泌物多且黏稠、視野模糊等症狀，滴眼藥水只能治標不能治本，你需要的是調整失衡的狀態，平日適量進食滋陰潤燥的食物，例如雪耳、沙參、玉竹、百合、麥冬等，針對眼部不適宜飲菊花茶療，有明目疏肝的功效。使用電腦時記得多眨眼、用眼每一小時休息10分鐘，雙眼望遠，多望綠色植物。如果眼睛不適情況沒有改善，宜看註冊中醫師治理。

菊花杞子茶
功效：清熱滋陰，紓緩因乾燥的眼澀、眼乾、喉嚨乾及皮膚乾燥等症狀。
材料：菊花6克、杞子10克、麥冬15克、蜂蜜適量
做法：將材料洗淨，麥冬切半，放入保溫瓶中，以熱開水沖泡一次，再注入熱開水焗約10分鐘即可，此茶可反覆沖泡至味淡。

✔推介茶療：熱氣
材料：雞蛋花、胎菊、白花蛇舌草
功效：清熱解毒。紓緩口臭、多眼垢、目赤眼乾、煩躁易怒、小便短赤或偏黃等症狀。

Dry eyes relief- nourish yin and relieve dryness
“I stare at the computer screen during work for eight hours. My eyes are often dry, and I can use up a bottle of eye drops in a day. What can I do?”

CheckCheckCin: Using computer for an extended period will cause eyes to turn red and dry; do note the severity of the condition. As we are entering autumn, autumn dryness will accelerate the loss of body fluid. Furthermore, sleeping late at night and eating spicy and deep fried food will cause the body to be deficient of the yin and blood, and this will exacerbate problems such as dry, tired, itchy eyes, sticky eye discharge as well as blurred vision.

Using eye drops may provide temporary relief but this is not a long-term solution. You need to restore the imbalance by consuming food that will nourish the yin and relieve the dryness, such snow fungus, glehnia root, Polygonatum odoratum ('yu zhu'), lily and dwarf lilyturf roots (‘mai dong’). Drink herbal chrysanthemum tea to relieve eye discomfort, as it can improve vision and soothe the liver. Remember to blink your eyes from time to time, and rest for 10 minutes every hour. Stare into the distance, and look at greenery around you. If such eye conditions persist, consult licensed and registered Chinese medicine practitioner.

Chrysanthemum tea with wolfberry
Effects: Clears heat and nourishes yin. Relieves dry eyes, dry throat and skin dryness caused by dryness.
Ingredients: 6g chrythanthemum, 10g wolfberry, 15g radix ophiopogonis, honey
Preparation: Rinse all dry ingredients thoroughly. Cut radix ophiopogonis in half. Place all ingredients into thermos and add in hot water and steep for 10 minutes until aroma develops. The tea can be poured into thermos and re-brewed until flavour weakens.

✔Beauty tea Recommendation: Very Hot (Qi)
Ingredients: Plumeria, Chrysanthemum Bud, Spreading Hedyotis
Effects: Clears heat and detoxifies. Suitable for bad breath, frequent eye discharge, red and dry eyes, frequent loss of temper and scanty or yellowish urine
