Also known as Jujubes, Chinese dates (da zao, hong zao), Korean dates or Indian dates (ber).
Having a chewy and sweet flavour, red dates are one of the most popular foods consumed for their health benefits in Traditional Chinese Medicine. You can choose to have red dates on its own or pair them with dried longans or wolfberries to make a delicious tea! Although you can eat red dates often for their nutritional benefits, overeating can cause bloating. Diabetic patients should also refrain from eating dates due to their high sugar content.
To spice things up, you can try having Grandma Lotus’s Night Wellness Tea or try out Weelicious’s chicken soup with red dates and ginger.
You can get some good quality red dates from Herbal Farmer’s official website, Laobanniang’s official website or Shopee store.
