Tips:
-You can also use this recipe but replace the lotus root, apple and pear with the herbs, flowers or aromatic plants. I mix the water chestnut with some mint leafs or the pandanus leafs with jasmine flowers , be creative and enjoy the summer ?.
– Leave the sugar out if you wanted to serve this drink hot.
