Goji tea

Gugi-cha (구기차; 枸杞茶) or goji tea is a traditional Chinese/Korean tea made from dried goji berries or leaves.[1] Traditionally, the tea was made with young goji leaves.[2] Today, mature leaves or, more commonly, berries are used.[1][2] The tea made with berries may be called gugija-cha (구기자차; 枸杞子茶) or goji berry tea, while the tea made with leaves is referred to as gugiyeop-cha (구기엽차; 枸杞葉茶) or goji leaf tea.[1]

gollark: Well, that could be fun, with more mods than just CC.
gollark: And no claims, presumably?
gollark: ... how would CC PVP even work? Launch giant self-replicating turtle swarms before the other people do?
gollark: Er. Not really.
gollark: Well, if the server has lots of RAM a decently big survival modpack could be fun.
