Detailed explanation of the method, time, and benefits of making liquor infused with Cistanche and deer penis

In daily life, many people like to use Cistanche and deer penis together to infuse liquor, feeling that this health-preserving liquor has very good health benefits after drinking. So, can Cistanche and deer penis really be infused into liquor together? How is it best to infuse them? How long does it generally take? What benefits and effects do they have?

We know that deer penis is actually a part of the deer's reproductive organs, but it contains relatively many nutrients. It is a warm-natured food with no toxins, and its effect of tonifying the kidneys and replenishing qi and blood is quite good. It is especially suitable for women who have just given birth, whose bodies have lost a great deal of internal energy and who are relatively prone to kidney deficiency. At this time, eating deer penis will effectively improve the condition of poor constitution, and may even bring many benefits to the body's resistance in the later period. Men can also eat it normally.

Cistanche has long enjoyed the reputation of “desert ginseng” and has extremely high medicinal value. It is a traditional precious Chinese medicinal herb. Sweet in taste and warm in nature, it has effects such as tonifying the kidneys and strengthening yang, replenishing essence and marrow, nourishing blood and moistening dryness, and improving complexion and prolonging life. It can be used both as medicine and food. Long-term consumption can increase physical strength, enhance endurance, and resist fatigue, while also enhancing the sexual capacity and fertility of humans and animals.

So, how is it best to infuse liquor with Cistanche and deer penis? Deer penis has relatively strong medicinal properties, and infusing deer penis into liquor can better bring out its medicinal effects. This is because baijiu can extract the active ingredients from the medicinal materials, and by drinking a small amount daily, kidney yang can gradually be restored.

However, the method of infusing deer penis into liquor needs to take its specific effects into consideration. If deer penis is infused into liquor for strengthening yang, it can be infused together with Cistanche or Boschniakia rossica, or with ginseng. For yang deficiency, one may add kidney-yang-nourishing items such as Epimedium, Psoralea corylifolia, and Curculigo orchioides; if there is excessive internal heat, one may add kidney-yin-nourishing items such as prepared rehmannia, Polygonum multiflorum, Ligustrum lucidum, and Eclipta prostrata; if the constitution is suitable, Chinese medicinal herbs such as goji berries can also be added in a mixed combination. The specific formula for various materials can be determined by consulting a professional traditional Chinese medicine doctor according to one's constitution.

There are now large containers on the market specially used for infusing medicinal liquor. Be sure to choose ceramic jars or glass bottles for holding the liquor, and remember that PET plastic buckets must not be used, because liquor has a corrosive effect, especially high-proof baijiu. After prolonged contact with plastic buckets, baijiu corrodes the plastic and easily incorporates some components of the plastic bucket. After buying one, you can fill the container with liquor, put in deer penis, Cistanche, and so on. There is currently no dosage standard for infused medicinal preparations. Usually, about 50g matched with one liter of liquor is better, and the alcohol content is best at 55 to 65 degrees. Infuse for about one month or more; in winter, infuse for about 45 days.

To ensure a better effect, the baijiu chosen must be truly high-quality pure grain liquor, preferably sorghum liquor. In addition, attention should also be paid to the consumption of liquor infused with deer penis. Each time, consume at most one or two liang. People with yin deficiency and excessive fire should use it cautiously, and patients with bronchial diseases should also strictly avoid excessive consumption to prevent excessive internal heat.
