Vietnamese artichoke tea, known as trà atiso, is welcomed by many Vietnamese people, especially moms, and aunties. Artichoke is said to have many health benefits, but my mom told me that this tea possesses the power to give you amazing skin. I believe that is the main reason it's so popular. Truth be told, I was forced to drink this when I was a teenager. Now, as an adult, I'm drinking it to cool down. Trà atiso is in the same class of herbal drinks, known as nước sâm. Nước sâm or nước mắt is a Vietnamese herbal drink that cools you down. It's like drinking lemonade or Michelada when it's hot outside, but of instead of sweet lemons or tomatoes we cool down with different vegetables and herbs. When I am at work and need something to cool me off or take the edge off, I like to order boba tea for my coworkers, and if they have an artichoke tea option, it's my go-to! Artichoke tea made from real artichokes is hard to find. Artichokes are expensive, so the teas are usually made with tea bags and they taste super diluted and overly sweet. This recipe is too easy not to share. It is also cost-effective for those who love to drink loads of artichoke tea. It's super simple anyone can make this! All it takes is time to brew the artichokes into a tea.

🛒Recipe Ingredients
Let's talk about the main ingredients in this tea!
- Artichoke - use fresh artichoke! Artichokes do wilt fast so remember to use them as soon as you can.
- Water - You'll need to boil the artichoke. Use enough to cover the artichokes.
- Sugar - Sugar is optional if you want to enhance the flavor of the tea and counterbalance any bitterness. You can use any sweetener you like but these are popular sweeteners to add: rock sugar, palm sugar, cane sugar, or honey. Pro-tip if you decide to add honey add it to the tea after it's done cooking. Honey tends to clump up when heated and won't evenly distribute throughout the tea.
