[0002] Rhinitis tea is a rhinitis substitute tea made from medicinal and edible ingredients as the core raw materials and based on a secret recipe. It does not rely on chemical additives. Through the synergistic effect of a variety of natural ingredients, it is specifically adapted to the needs of rhinitis treatment. It not only inherits the traditional Chinese medicine concept of food and medicine, but also integrates into daily life in the convenient form of tea. While retaining the natural nutrition and active ingredients of the ingredients, it provides a gentle and easy-to-adhere treatment option for people with rhinitis. Existing rhinitis tea drinks generally lack clear raw material selection criteria, relying entirely on experience for screening. Impurities are not thoroughly removed, and precise morphological adjustments and purification processes are not performed according to the characteristics of different raw materials. This results in the inability to fully release the effective components in the raw materials. Furthermore, the proportion of raw materials lacks scientific quantitative basis, is highly arbitrary, and the component ratios of different batches of products vary greatly. This makes it impossible to guarantee the stability of the conditioning effect and also makes it difficult to avoid safety hazards caused by improper raw material processing. Summary of the Invention

[0022] The method of use and working principle of this invention are as follows: Instructions for use: First, clean all raw materials such as Cordyceps sinensis, saffron, and ginseng to remove surface impurities and contaminants. Then, according to the characteristics of the raw materials, crush and sieve them separately, adjust them to a suitable form, and dry them to stabilize the moisture and state of the raw materials. Next, put the dried raw materials into the extraction equipment, add deionized water to fully soak them, and then extract and filter to separate the filtrate. Concentrate the filtrate. Then, dry the concentrated liquid to make dry powder, add a binder and mix evenly to make wet granules, and then dry and shape the wet granules. Finally, sieve the dried granules to remove lumps and fragments. After the physicochemical and microbiological indicators are qualified, seal them in vacuum packaging and print the relevant production information to complete the entire usage process.
[0023] Working Principle: The standardized preparation of a mild, conditioning rhinitis-treating tea is achieved through the coordinated operation of four modules. The raw material pretreatment module removes impurities and adjusts the form and moisture content of raw materials through cleaning, crushing, sieving, and drying, creating favorable conditions for subsequent extraction of active ingredients. The active ingredient extraction enhancement module uses the physical action of specific equipment to break down the raw material structure, accelerating the dissolution of active ingredients, and then achieves separation and enrichment of active ingredients through filtration and concentration. The granulation and molding module transforms the concentrated active ingredients into granules, improving the product's solubility during brewing while ensuring granule shape and stability. The sieving, inspection, and packaging module purifies the product form through sieving, controls product quality through multi-dimensional testing, and then uses vacuum packaging to isolate oxygen and moisture, preventing product deterioration and extending shelf life. Each module logically progresses to complete the transformation from raw materials to finished product, ensuring uniform and stable product quality.
