White and fat bee larvae are steamed or fried or cooked with eggs, bee larvae burst in the mouth, collagen, squeaky, full of collagen, squeaky.

Bee larvae can nourish the god and replenish energy, it's also good for the skin (haha, but high protein people can't receive it)

Head wears a banana, foot wears a pineapple!

Fruits and melons fragrant in all seasons.

Due to the hot weather, pineapples can ripen twice a year, this season's pineapples are a little cute, peeling off the golden skin, can be eaten directly, of course, Banna's pineapple has other ways of eating, such as dipping in chili powder, making pineapple rice.

Sugar Cane

Ancient sweet memories, long-standing.

Banna's sugar cane usually starts harvesting in October, if planted, it can be harvested again in March of the following year, crisp sugar cane, peeled and can be eaten directly, can be squeezed into sweet juice to drink.

It has to be said that the ancient handmade sugar, using the harvested sugar cane to squeeze juice, use a large iron pot to cook for a whole day, then constantly stirred, after being solidified into molds, letting it stand for a long time, has a rich aroma.

Pure soil, blue sky, gave birth to this Banna's ancient 'sweet memory'

Spring Tea

This year's drought in the early spring, tea is short.

Have you tasted the first bite of spring tea today?

Good tea is always hidden in high-altitude mountains, shrouded in clouds and mist, sucking in the fragrance of nature, every time you climb a tea mountain, you always feel relaxed and happy, every time you drink tea, you always remember Zhou Shuren's words 'drinking tea is as good as paper in a dilapidated house, green tea, with elegant ceramic tea sets, shared by three or two people'

Half a day's leisure can be exchanged for ten years of dust dreams. Tea farmers spend their whole lives with village lanes and white clouds, they accompany them, but they love the world's love and beauty. Wish the wine is warm on the stove, the tea is boiling in the pot, so that ordinary people are not heroes and beauties, but also respected.

Let good mountains, good water, good tea, be known to the world.
