Why people make this tea

Nourilo had half a bag of tender mulberry shoots left over from making a fragrant, light tea, and with a spell of dry weather he reached for ophiopogon and apricot kernels to round it out. This brew is traditionally used to nourish yin, cool the lungs and ease the dryness behind a tickly dry cough and a parched nose and mouth.
