Stewed Lemon with Rock Sugar

Overview

It’s the season of autumn dryness again, and I happened to have a bag of old rock sugar that I opened for my own use. I was worried about how to use it up. Old rock sugar stewed with lemon can moisten the lungs and relieve coughs, and can also enhance immunity. To put it down to earth, it is perfect as the healthiest hot drink.
