Oct 10, 2023
Cistanche deserticola, Cynomorium songaricum, and goji berry are commonly known as the functional "Three Gentlemen", and these three ingredients have been recorded in traditional Chinese medicine for brewing wine. In the Yuan Dynasty, these three flavors were used as the main medicine in the nourishing formulas of the court nobles and Mongolian nobles. Cistanche deserticola, Cynomorium songaricum, and Chinese wolfberry wine are mainly used for tonifying kidney yang and impotence caused by insufficient essence, tonifying kidneys, benefiting essence and blood, nourishing dryness, and tendons, and treating sexual dysfunction such as impotence and premature ejaculation.

Do you want to make a good medicinal wine with Cistanche deserticola, Cynomorium songaricum, and goji berries? These issues are something you must pay attention to
Soaking medicinal wine, as an ancient way of maintaining health and wellness, is becoming increasingly popular among people. Making wine has a lot of knowledge: what kind of wine is used to make it? How much alcohol does the wine need? What container should I use to soak it in? Every step requires attention, and if not mastered well, not only will it not perform its intended function, but it may also harm the body.

Below, the author shares some experiences with you from the perspective of a wine enthusiast.
1、 What kind of Baijiu is good for Cistanche deserticola, Cynomorium songaricum, and Lycium barbarum?
According to media reports, 70% of Baijiu on the market is made by blending edible alcohol+spices+sodium cyclamate+water. Due to the cost, almost all middle and low-end Baijiu are made by blending alcohol, while many liquor brewed with pure grain are made by blending edible alcohol. The difference between edible alcohol and pure grain liquor is that pure grain liquor is naturally fermented and contains a variety of natural substances beneficial to human health, However, consuming alcohol and alcohol as additives is not beneficial to the human body and can also damage the efficacy of medicinal herbs. Therefore, it is necessary to choose nonadditive pure grain wine for making Cistanche Cistanche Suoyang goji wine. This type of nonadditive pure grain wine is not easy to find in the market. Here, the author recommends a Gu Yangkang pure grain wine, which is truly nonadditive pure grain wine and suitable for making Cistanche Cistanche Suoyang goji wine.

2、 Cistanche, Cynomorium, Lycium barbarum, and Medicinal Liquor should not be packaged in plastic barrels
There are many PET plastic barreled wines in the market, which are cheap. This kind of PET plastic is very safe to contain water, but Baijiu is highly corrosive, especially highly Baijiu, which will corrode the plastic ingredients in the wine. Therefore, for safety reasons, glass or ceramic bottles should be chosen for wine packaging, rather than plastic barrels.

3、 Cistanche deserticola, Cynomorium songaricum, and Lycium barbarum. How much Baijiu should be used to make wine
A slightly higher degree of Baijiu is more likely to kill the bacteria and germs of Cistanche deserticola and Cynomorium songaricum. The leakage of water from Cistanche deserticola and Cynomorium barbarum can also dilute the alcohol content, and with the passage of storage time, the alcohol content of the wine will decrease. If the alcohol content is too low, it is easy to spoil after long-term storage. Therefore, the best high-quality pure grain wine with a 60-degree alcohol content is Cistanche deserticola and Suoyang goji berry.
4、 What container is better for making wine with Cistanche deserticola, Cynomorium songaricum, and Chinese wolfberry?

Cistanche tubulosa wine
Cistanche deserticola, Cynomorium songaricum, and Lycium barbarum should use earthenware jars or glassware, and earthenware jars are the best. In ancient times, earthenware was used to boil traditional Chinese medicine and store Baijiu. Earthen pottery can accelerate the aging of wine and improve the quality of wine, so earthenware jars are more suitable than glass for filling wine. It is prohibited to use plastic and metal containers to brew medicinal liquor, as plastic and metal containers may release harmful substances. Glass and ceramics will not cause the above situation, which is also another reason why I recommend Guyuankang Pure Grain Wine to everyone. Guyuankang Pure Grain Wine is made of earthenware jars with a larger bottle mouth. If the amount of brewing is not large, you can directly add the Cistanche Cistanche Suoyang Goji berries to the pottery jars, avoiding the need to purchase a brewing jar. If the amount of brewing is large, you can go to the market to purchase larger brewing vessels.
