Apple, Astragalus & Botanical Wellness Blend™ — 180 g

Fresh apple. Gentle roots. Mellow fruit sweetness. Five botanicals you can blend your own way.

Discover Apple, Astragalus & Botanical Wellness Blend™, a light, fruit-forward botanical collection built around familiar dried apple, mellow roots and gently sweet fruits.

Five visible ingredients are stored separately rather than permanently premixed:

Dried Apple · Astragalus Root · Goji Berry · Ophiopogon Root (Mai Dong) · Red Date

Dried Apple creates the fresh, naturally sweet foundation. Astragalus adds mellow earthy depth. Goji brings gentle berry character. Ophiopogon Root softens the cup with a delicate root note, while Red Date adds a warmer, rounded fruit finish.

Together, they create an approachable flavour direction:

Fresh · Fruity · Mellow · Gently Sweet · Smooth

But the real advantage is flexibility.

More Apple. More Goji. A Little More Root. A Lighter Cup. A Longer Simmer.

Each container includes 180 g / 6.35 oz of botanical ingredients in a compartment-style format designed to let you adjust each preparation to your own taste.

Five Botanicals · One Flexible Blend

Dried Apple

Fresh · Fruity · Naturally Sweet

Dried Apple forms the fruit-forward foundation of this blend.

Its familiar aroma and light natural sweetness create a brighter and more approachable starting point than a strongly root-focused botanical blend.

The Apple allows the deeper botanical ingredients to remain present without becoming the entire flavour story.

Want a fruitier cup?

Add More Apple.

Astragalus Root

Mellow · Earthy · Gently Sweet

Astragalus contributes a mild root character beneath the brighter Apple.

It adds botanical depth while allowing the fruit ingredients to remain noticeable.

Want a deeper root profile?

Add a Little More Astragalus.

Goji Berry

Fruity · Soft · Bright

Goji Berry adds gentle berry character, natural colour and another layer of fruit sweetness.

It helps connect the fresh Apple with the warmer Red Date and softer root ingredients.

Want a fruit-richer cup?

Add Extra Goji.

Ophiopogon Root / Mai Dong

Delicate · Mild · Smooth

Ophiopogon Root, also known as Mai Dong / 麦冬, contributes a quieter root character.

Its mild profile helps soften the overall blend and supports a cleaner, more delicate finish.

Red Date

Warm · Rounded · Naturally Sweet

Red Date provides the warmest fruit direction in the blend.

Its mellow dried-fruit character balances the fresher Apple and creates a softer, rounder finish.

Together:

Fresh Fruit + Gentle Roots + Warm Sweetness

Taste & Aroma

Aroma

Fresh Apple · Warm Fruit · Gentle Root Notes

Apple leads, while Red Date and the roots create a softer botanical background.

Taste

Fruity · Mellow · Naturally Sweet · Smooth · Balanced

This is not intended to be an intensely herbal cup.

The fruit-forward structure keeps the overall profile approachable.

Body

Light to Medium · Smooth

Finish

Clean · Delicate · Softly Sweet

The overall sensory direction is:

Fresh Apple · Gentle Roots · Mellow Sweetness

Why the Separate Compartments Matter

This is the most important feature of the product.

Instead of receiving one permanently mixed botanical blend, the five ingredients remain organized separately.

That means you control the balance of every cup.

Want It Fruitier?

Use more:

Dried Apple

Want More Root Character?

Add a little more:

Astragalus

Want More Berry Character?

Add extra:

Goji Berry

Want a Softer Cup?

Use:

Fewer Ingredients + More Water + Shorter Preparation

Want a Fuller Botanical Brew?

Use:

More Ingredients + Gentle Simmering

The compartment format gives you something a permanently premixed blend cannot:

One Box · Many Possible Cups

Create Every Cup Your Own Way

There is no need to make every preparation identical.

Apple-Forward

Use more Dried Apple for a brighter, fruitier character.

Root-Forward

Increase Astragalus slightly for more earthy botanical depth.

Fruit-Rich

Use more Apple, Goji and Red Date.

Light & Simple

Use fewer ingredients with more water.

Slow Simmer

Use a larger portion and gently simmer for a fuller Apple-and-root character.

The flexibility is intentional.

Your Ingredients · Your Ratio · Your Cup

How to Prepare

Everyday Hot Infusion

A useful starting point is:

Botanicals: 8–12 g
Water: 350–500 ml
Temperature: 95–100°C / 203–212°F
Time: 8–10 minutes

Select your preferred combination from the separate compartments.

Place the botanicals in clean teaware.

Add hot water.

Allow the ingredients to infuse for approximately 8–10 minutes.

Adjust the individual ingredients according to taste.

Refill with hot water while flavour remains.

Simple · Flexible · Everyday

A Lighter Everyday Cup

Prefer something softer?

Start with approximately:

• A few pieces of Dried Apple

• 1–2 slices of Astragalus

• A few Goji Berries

• A small amount of Ophiopogon Root

• 1 slice of Red Date

Add:

300–400 ml Hot Water

Steep for approximately:

5–8 Minutes

Then adjust according to taste.

There is no single “correct” ratio.

The compartment format is designed specifically to give you flexibility.

Gentle Simmer

For a fuller botanical preparation:

Botanicals: 15–20 g
Water: Approximately 800 ml
Simmer: 20–30 minutes

Add your selected ingredients to fresh water.

Bring the water to a gentle boil.

Reduce the heat.

Simmer for approximately 20–30 minutes.

Strain if desired and enjoy warm.

More water may be added and the botanicals gently simmered again while flavour remains.

This preparation generally creates a fuller Apple aroma and deeper root character.

Thermos Brewing

For work, travel or slower sipping:

Botanicals: 8–12 g
Water: 500–700 ml
Temperature: 95–100°C / 203–212°F
Time: 15–20 minutes

Place your selected ingredients in a thermos.

Add hot water.

Cover and allow the botanicals to infuse.

Sip gradually.

Refill with hot water while the ingredients still have flavour.

Fill · Steep · Sip · Refill

Multiple Refills

Do not automatically discard the ingredients after the first infusion.

Add hot water again while flavour remains.

First Brew

Fresh Apple · Fruit Sweetness · Fuller Botanical Character

Second Brew

Softer Roots · Mellow Fruit

Later Refills

Light · Smooth · Delicate

Stop refilling when the flavour becomes too mild for your preference.

One Portion · Several Cups

Hot, Warm or Chilled

This blend works especially well as a warm botanical infusion, but it may also be served chilled.

Brew

Prepare the botanicals normally using hot water.

Cool

Allow the infusion to cool appropriately.

Chill

Refrigerate until cold.

Serve

Serve chilled or pour over ice if desired.

Because this preparation begins with hot water, it is better described as:

Serve It Chilled

rather than true cold brewing.

Compartment Blend vs. Tea Pods

This product serves a very different purpose from PandaHomeMart's pre-portioned Botanical Tea Pods.

	Compartment Blend	Tea Pods
Main Advantage	Customization	Convenience
Ingredients	Stored separately	Pre-blended
Ratio	Adjustable	Pre-portioned
Measuring	Yes	No
Flavour Control	High	Consistent
Preparation	Flexible	Quick
Best For	Personal blending	Office & travel convenience

The simplest distinction is:

Tea Pods = Convenience

Compartment Blend = Customization

Choose this Apple & Astragalus Blend when you want to control the amount of every ingredient yourself.

Naturally Caffeine-Free from Tea

This blend contains no Camellia sinensis tea leaves.

There is no:

Green Tea · Black Tea · White Tea · Oolong · Pu-erh

inside the blend.

It is therefore naturally caffeine-free from conventional tea.

The most accurate classification is:

Botanical Herbal Infusion

rather than traditional tea.

Does It Contain Added Sugar?

No added sugar is identified in the current product information.

The gently sweet character comes naturally from ingredients such as:

Dried Apple · Goji Berry · Red Date

This makes it very different from products such as Brown Sugar, Ginger & Red Date Tea™, where Brown Sugar is an actual ingredient.

Always check the physical packaging for the complete final ingredient and nutrition information.
