The Xianyitang 五指毛桃湯 (Wǔ Zhǐ Máo Táo Tāng) is a Cantonese herbal soup blend centred on ficus root (五指毛桃 / Ficus hirta), combined with soybeans (黃豆), sweet almonds (甜杏仁), red date (大棗), clerodendranthus leaf (龍脷葉) and a small amount of bitter almonds (苦杏仁). The ficus root gives the broth a distinctive mild, coconut-like fragrance characteristic of Guangdong-style soups. The soybeans and almonds add body to the broth.
