Cold low belly? Warm cinnamon ginger tea
Cinnamon ginger tea for cold-womb patterns
Warming cinnamon, ginger, and red-date tea for cold-womb patterns. Kitchen recipe with TCM framing, not a fertility cure.
Read biteIn brief
Fry one cleaned crucian carp until golden, then simmer with 10 g rice paper pith (通草) and a few ginger slices in water to cover for about thirty minutes. Season with salt.

FAQs
Quick questions
How often can I drink this soup?
The source guidance is two to three times a week when the pot matches your pattern. It is not an everyday tonic for every constitution.
Why add rice paper pith (通草)?
In kitchen TCM, 通草 is used with crucian carp when the aim is to help milk flow move more smoothly. Amounts stay food-therapy scale; do not self-dose stronger herbal decoctions from a label alone.
