    Explanation: Milk coffee, green tea coffee, bartender coffee... With the change of people's demand for coffee, more and more food and drink have become the new "coffee companion".
    recently, in Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, The Great Health Valley exhibition hall of the coffee shop, there are several "medicinal food of the same origin" of Chinese medicine extract as a condiment of herbal coffee officially launched.
    In the coffee shop bar, different flavors of "medicinal co-source" Chinese medicine extract is packed in a sealed glass bottle labeled, when making, the required Chinese medicine extract will be proportionally weighed, and then the same weighing coffee beans ground into powder, Italian coffee machine extract espresso liquid, and then melted with Chinese medicine extract, and finally added to the milk bubble full-fat milk, a cup of herbal coffee is ready.
    Talking about the original intention of the development of herbal coffee, Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chinese medicine health industry technology research institute director Liu Xianwu said that initially wanted to do chinese medicine elements of the drink, the flavor of Chinese medicine into the coffee, after repeated matching tests by the team of experts, has formed 10 servings of herbal coffee formula, but because of the addition of coffee chinese medicine ingredients less, so it is not effective.
    (The same period) (Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chinese Medicine Health Industry Technology Research Institute Director Liu Xianwu) traditional (Chinese medicine) to take the way is (to) soup-based, soup-based no matter from its taste is also good, the appearance of shape is also good, now young people they accept relatively some difficulty.
    then we combine the brewing technology of coffee with traditional Chinese medicine.
    We have not thought, must add Chinese medicine after what kind of efficacy, are not necessarily, but at least the taste and flavor of this Chinese medicine extract is characteristic.
    only viewed from the outside, herbal coffee and ordinary Italian coffee is no different, but the recent smell of fine products, through the taste of coffee, can clearly feel the special taste of Chinese medicine.
    although the herb coffee slightly "dark dishes", but there are still customers to taste.
    (Chengdu resident Yang Wei) we all know that Chinese medicine is very good for the body, and then this time the Chinese medicine into this coffee, feel is more new.
    (Chengdu resident Ho Wenxuan) still has the aroma of a caffuccino, which makes you really want to drink, and then drink a little bitter taste, but not very nasal, did not hide the smell of coffee.
    For netizens concerned about whether Chinese medicine can be added to drinks, Liu Xianwu explained that the use of herbal coffee is Chinese herbal extracts, not directly extracted with Chinese herbal medicine, and the use of Chinese herbal medicines are published by the National Health and Safety Commission in the "same source of medicine catalog", but also in line with the Food Safety Law related provisions.
    (The same period) (Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chinese Medicine Health Industry Technology Research Institute Director Liu Xianwu) so that we choose (aspects), is to choose that kind of "medicinal food two-use" Chinese herbal medicine, both as medicinal, but also as a food use, it can guarantee our legitimacy as a food, at the same time our technology is also through modern exploration, then its process is also more scientific norms, specialized testing institutions to do a series of testing, in line with some modern food norms.
    the current product is commissioned a coffee production enterprises, for formal production, currently in the market has a formal sales, but also carried out a more standardized, complete reporting.
    the concept of herbal coffee is legal, "medicinal food is the same source" of Chinese herbal medicine in the production and operation of food how to regulate the addition? In this regard, lawyers in the field of medicine and health have answered.
    Hu Ze, a lawyer at the law firm Zhonglun Wende (Chengdu) in Beijing, according to Article 38 of the Food Safety Law, food products that are manufactured and operated may be added to a substance that is both a food and a herbal medicine in accordance with tradition.
    this part of the substance catalogue shall be formulated and published by the administrative department of health under the State Council in cooperation with the food and drug supervision and administration department under the State Council.
    The State Health and Construction Commission published the "in accordance with the tradition is both food and Chinese herbal substances catalog" (draft for comments), it contains the herbal coffee mentioned in the use of fennel, Rohan fruit (etc.), so the concept of herbal coffee, in fact, in line with the law clearly is both food and Chinese herbal substances description, but in the actual use of the process also need professionals to fully screen the ingredients of Chinese herbal medicine, in strict accordance with the relevant government departments issued standards and requirements for implementation.
