Culture Insider: Illustrations of 24 solar terms and Chinese delicacies

White Dew, the 15th solar term of the year, indicates autumn's beginning. From the starting day of White Dew, the temperature gradually declines. Due to the low temperature at night, white dew often forms due to the vapors in the air on grass and trees. Li Xiaolin illustrates White Dew wine as a recommended beverage for the season. Sweet White Dew wine is made of polished glutinous rice and kaoliang (a specific kind of sorghum), which can help to warm the body. [Photo by Li Xiaolin/provided to chinadaily.com.cn]
