Herb juice and the persistence of Coffee: no Sugar

For professional baristas, please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style)

A few days ago, I went to the traditional Chinese medicine store and wanted to buy a bag of Herb juice tea bags to cook for the guests who often work overtime in the coffee shop.

Interestingly, this is the first time I've cooked Herb juice, and I'm not familiar with the process.

"Boss, I'd like to ask, how would you suggest me to cook this Herb juice? Did you say the ratio of water to Herb juice? " I watched carefully and focused on helping my boss who was packing.

"well, this..." He frowned as if he were thinking of something

"maybe about 1000 cc would be just right... However, you may have to see what kind of concentration you like and then adjust it yourself. " He tried to explain how to mix a cup of Herb juice in the perfect proportion.

"1000 cc..." I repeated it silently for fear that I might forget it.

"but there is one important point that I would suggest to you," he suddenly looked up and said.

"Hmm?" I answered with a little doubt.

"I would advise you not to add sugar. It won't taste good if you add too much sugar." His eyes became more intense.

"but won't it be too bitter if you don't add sugar?" The Herb juice I remember is a little bitter.

"this is fresh licorice. When cooking, there will be a natural sweet smell of hay. Basically, don't add any more sugar." While encapsulating my Herb juice, he looked at me, and there seemed to be a trace of strong pressure reflecting me in his eyes.

"do I need to add anything else?"

"No, if you drink the original, there will be no burden on the body." Boss, finally smiled.

"OK, I see."

Before leaving, "remember, don't add sugar, you can't drink it if you add it." His eyes looked directly at mine.

In this second, I saw from the boss's eyes that we were selling black coffee, the same hard bones.

If you insist on not adding sugar, it is the same everywhere.
