王老吉创始人王泽邦,被称为“江南药侠”。


老老实实王老吉  

王老吉旧时是前店后坊的布局,屋后是伙计煲凉茶的地方。他们对凉茶煲制的要求很高,为了充分发挥药效。药材均是提前一晚开始浸泡,等到第二天早上再用炭火煎制,增强药效。  据说,当时很多凉茶铺会故意添加猪胆汁增加苦味,以表示浓度高,但在王老吉凉茶铺,伙计们都不敢妄动药方,因此在外界有了“老老实实王老吉”的名声。

  据说,林则徐初到广东时水土不服,又因查禁鸦片操劳过度,患上了感冒等症,也找王老吉求良方医治。在服用王老吉的草药后,很快就痊愈。林则徐感恩戴德,亲自登门答谢王老吉,并赠雕有“王老吉”的大铜葫芦一个,寓意“悬壶济世,普救众生”。

凉茶,是用植物原料煎水熬成的汤药。因为可消除夏季人体内的湿暑气,降火消滞,故名为凉茶

  在气候湿热的广东区域,人们无论发烧感冒,还是上火喉痛,都习惯喝凉茶作为调理身体的饮茶。所以广东一带便诞生了许多以卖凉茶为业的老字号。

王老吉始创于1828年,是历史最早的凉茶,被公认为凉茶始祖。

  王老吉创始人是王泽邦,小名阿吉,为鹤山人,由于爱采药为乡民治病,被称为岭南药侠

传说,1828年他在清远飞来峡试药时遇险,幸被道士贵人所救,并获赠王老吉凉茶的药方。王泽邦回到乡下后,用此药方治好了乡民的天花和瘟疫,因而一举成名,被皇帝召入皇宫,半年后被封为太医院院使(清朝正五品官名,掌宫廷医药),后衣锦还乡,在广州靖远街开了一间凉茶铺,这就是王老吉凉茶。
