对越来越多的消费者而言，或许觉得新茶饮产品配料越简单越健康，但在茶百道眼中，将紫苏这样的东 方植物放入鲜果茶，是一次大胆的尝试。 紫苏是中国原生的草本植物，可作食用、药用、油用、香料用，在我国有2000多年的种植历史。著名传 统医学典籍《本草纲目》中就记载，紫苏"行气宽中，消痰利肺，和血，温脾胃"，可以说是不折不扣 的"东方超级植物"。如今，紫苏依旧是许多人热爱的食物，凉拌，做汤，烹鱼、肉等方式已经司空见 惯，但将香气浓郁的紫苏做饮品，或许还颇为少见。 在过去几年的跑马圈地后，新茶饮行业发展进入新阶段，从比拼规模到回归产品初心，越来越多的企业 意识到产品依旧是差异化的最大手段。近期，茶百道以东方草本植物搭配鲜果，成为率先推出"东方植 物鲜养果茶"新品类的新茶饮企业。与以往的产品发布不同，此次茶百道为"东方植物鲜养果茶"上市制 定了"3鲜3养"的产品标准，用高标准保障产品品质。 事实上，在新茶饮行业，头部企业纷纷开始发力原料端，从牛奶到茶叶再到如今的"超级植物"，新茶饮 企业用自己的方式自我革新。而在新茶饮企业这一系列动作的背后，是越来越成熟的供应链建设，通过 规模优势，打造品牌壁垒。茶百道开创的"东方植物鲜养 ...
