Empress' Secret



Empress' Secret is an herbal beverage made to boost the immune system. The key ingredients in this beverage are goji berries, ginseng, lotus seeds, dragon eye fruit, and jujube dates. The drink has a dark orange color and a fruity aroma. It has a fruity flavor with a spicy finish from the ginseng. From a personal experience, I drank Empress' Secret before going to bed. I had a good night's rest and felt energetic in the morning. The link to the product page is below.
