The following is good for 4 cups:

3. Red Dates/ Jujubes - 8 to 10 medium sized (remove seeds)
4. Dried Longan - 20 pieces

Brown sugar is added because of its beneficial properties, it helps to nourish the blood, expel wind and disperse "cold" in the body.

Ginger is "neutral" in nature, ie. neither cooling nor heaty. However, as this drink serves to remove "cold" from the body, we need to remove the skin as the skin has cooling properties.
