Some nights call for something warm, silky, and a little grounding. That’s this one.⁠
⁠
Black sesame has long been valued for its rich, nourishing quality (in TCM, it’s considered a Kidney and Liver tonic, believed to support deep, restorative nourishment from the inside out). It’s naturally rich in calcium, iron, and healthy fats, giving this latte its signature toasty, deep flavor and velvety texture.⁠
⁠
Blended with our Relax + Sleep (red date, poria, bupleurum root, GABA), the sweet, jammy notes of red date meet the nutty depth of black sesame for a pairing that just makes sense: cozy, comforting, and built for winding down.

Breakfast that actually keeps you full, not just fed. 🥣⁠
⁠
Black sesame nourishes kidney and liver energy in TCM, oats bring the kind of steady, grounding qi that a sugary breakfast just can’t. No crash by 10am, no reaching for a second coffee to get there. Yes, it’s green, that’s the Energy + Immunity sachet doing its thing.⁠
⁠
Ingredients:⁠
1/2 cup rolled oats⁠
1 cup milk of choice⁠
2 tbsp nut butter of choice⁠
1 tbsp honey⁠
1 tbsp black sesame powder⁠
1 Energy + Immunity sachet⁠
⁠
Steps:⁠
Mix the oats, nut butter, honey, black sesame powder, and Energy + Immunity sachet together first. Add to a pot with the milk and simmer until the oats are soft, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve warm.⁠
Save this for the mornings you actually want to feel good by lunch. 👇

Not everything that “goes together” needs an explanation. Some of it’s just true.⁠
⁠
Three pairings, TCM-approved:⁠
⁠
🍳 Bitter melon + egg - This common Chinese dish is perfect for the summer. Bitter melon is used in TCM to clear excess heat and support digestion, but on its own it can be a lot, sharp, bitter, and a little harsh on an empty stomach. Egg softens that, rounding it out into something your gut can actually handle.⁠
⁠
💦 Sneakers + glass of water - movement after eating helps keep your circulation moving instead of sitting stagnant in the stomach, part of why a short walk post-meal is a classic TCM habit. Following it with room-temp/warm water, not cold, supports that same digestion instead of shocking the system right after.⁠
⁠
🍽️ Noo Gut + the plate you just finished - the moment right after a meal is exactly when digestion needs support most. That’s the logic behind taking it consistently, not waiting until something already feels off.⁠
⁠
Some of these you already do without thinking about it. Now you know why.⁠

Toast, but make it functional. 🍯⁠
⁠
Peanut butter’s protein and healthy fats keep energy steady instead of spiking and crashing, paired with Energy + Immunity for a little extra support. Warm peanut butter, sachet stirred in, banana, sesame, a drizzle of honey. That’s the whole recipe.⁠
⁠
Ingredients:⁠
2 tbsp peanut butter⁠
1 Energy + Immunity sachet⁠
1 tsp honey⁠
1-2 slices whole grain toast⁠
Banana slices (optional)⁠
Pinch of sesame seeds (optional)⁠
⁠
Steps:⁠
Warm peanut butter slightly. Bloom the sachet in a teaspoon of warm water, then stir into the peanut butter until smooth. Spread on toast. Top with banana and sesame. Drizzle honey on top.

Breakfast, solved in the time it takes to boil water. 🍚⁠
A TCM twist on tang fan (湯飯), the classic Chinese hot broth-over-rice dish. We steeped Energy + Immunity into the broth, poured it over rice, and topped it with shiitake and spring onion⁠
⁠
The rice soaks up the broth as it sits, so every bite carries a little bit of that warmth to start your morning off right.⁠
⁠
Ingredients:⁠
1 cup cooked rice (day-old works best)⁠
1 NOOCI Energy + Immunity sachet⁠
1 cup hot water or chicken broth⁠
Toppings: shiitake, spring onion (bok choi, and meat, optional)⁠
Optional: a few drops of soy sauce⁠
⁠
Steps:⁠
Steep the Energy + Immunity sachet in hot broth for 1-2 minutes, stir well. Place cooked rice in a bowl. Arrange toppings over the rice: mushrooms, spring onion. Pour the broth over the rice slowly. Add a few drops of soy sauce if desired. Serve immediately. Day-old rice works best here, it holds its texture instead of turning mushy the second the broth hits it.

Some nights call for something you can make in 5 minutes flat. Lily bulb, jasmine flower, and Relax + Sleep. That’s the tea.⁠
⁠
Lily bulb calms the mind and moistens the lungs. Jasmine has been shown to lower heart rate and shift mood into a calmer state, the same aromatic compound (linalool) responsible is also found in lavender. It’s also known to ease muscle tension, a nice pairing with lily bulb’s mind-calming effect.⁠
Steep, strain, stir, sip warm. No fancy equipment, no 20 ingredients.⁠
⁠
Ingredients: ⁠
1 tbsp dried lily bulb (bai he)⁠
2 tbsp dried jasmine flower⁠
1 sachet Relax + Sleep⁠
8 oz hot water⁠
Honey to taste (optional)⁠
⁠
Steep the lily bulb and jasmine in hot water for 15 min, covered. Then strain. Stir in Relax + Sleep and honey. Serve warm

Chinese households have simmered this into recovery soup for centuries, to rebuild the blood a long illness drains. ⁠
⁠
Meet red date (hóng zǎo) aka jujube, one of the most-used ingredients in Chinese medicine, and one you’ve probably had without knowing its full story.⁠
⁠
It’s warm, not cooling, which is part of why it shows up paired with ginger so often. And it’s not just an old wives’ tale either: red dates carry a compound that actually supports blood flow, one of the rare spots where “TCM says it builds blood” and “science says why” land on the same answer.⁠
⁠
Swipe through for what it’s actually used for, the research behind it, and two easy ways to cook with it, one tea, one food.⁠
