This is the first time I've seen "rock sugar apricot peel water". I bought a cup to try. Overall, it's similar to sour plum soup. The direction is roughly the same, but they are both a bit too sweet. You can't drink too much at one time [囧] If you drink too much, you may need to drink more water

You must drink their sugar-free apricot peel water! 10 yuan a bottle is not cheap, but it is much better than the ones in various restaurants in Dunhuang. I regretted not buying enough on the first day. I went to the restaurant in the afternoon of the second day and found that they only opened at 5 o'clock. We gave up with tears in order to catch the plane. Why don't they open during the day? It's sad. Later, when I arrived in Lanzhou, I could no longer find such delicious and pure apricot peel water. I must drink more!

The most famous apricot peel water specialty store in Dunhuang, the taste is really good, the small bottle is 5 yuan, the large bottle is 10 yuan, it is not the kind of mixed, so it is very delicious, you must try it, there are stores in many places in Dunhuang

When I went to Dunhuang before, I thought it was strange, as if there were apricot trees everywhere. Later, I looked up information and found out that apricot trees have been here for hundreds of years. How many years have people boiled apricot peel water? Of course, we don’t boil it this traditional way now.
