Introduction
In autumn, when experiencing a dry throat, it is generally better to drink Luo Han Guo tea, which has lung-clearing and throat-soothing effects. Silver ear fungus tea, known for its lung-moistening properties, is also beneficial. Additionally, drinking Nabao tea (Jinhua tea), which has antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects, is helpful. Drinking chrysanthemum tea is also recommended, as it can quench thirst, relieve pain, dispel wind, clear heat, calm the liver, improve eyesight, and alleviate sore throat.

In autumn, dry throat is generally relieved by drinking teas such as monk fruit tea, white fungus tea, honeysuckle tea, and chrysanthemum tea.

1. Monk Fruit Tea

Monk fruit tea has the effect of clearing the lungs and soothing the throat. Drinking it appropriately during autumn can help alleviate pharyngitis or throat discomfort caused by lung heat, thus benefiting a dry throat.

2. White Fungus Tea

White fungus tea is white in color, and generally, white-colored foods are known to moisten the lungs. Therefore, drinking an appropriate amount of white fungus tea in autumn can also help moisturize the lungs and relieve coughing, providing good relief for a dry throat.

3. Honeysuckle Tea

Honeysuckle tea usually has effective fever-reducing and anti-inflammatory properties, offering good relief for symptoms like dry throat and other throat discomforts. Thus, when experiencing a dry throat in autumn, drinking an appropriate amount of honeysuckle tea can be beneficial.

4. Chrysanthemum Tea

Chrysanthemum tea helps quench thirst, relieve pain, dispel wind, clear heat, calm the liver, improve eyesight, and alleviate sore throat. Therefore, when a dry throat occurs in autumn, drinking an appropriate amount of chrysanthemum tea can help reduce symptoms.

Patients with a dry throat in autumn may also benefit from drinking osmanthus tea or radish tea.
