In a pot, bring water to a boil. Open the fruit of the monk, then add it to the boiling water. The fleshy pulps and seeds of the monk's fruit should be broken up using the back of a ladle after boiling for three to five minutes.

Re-boil the mixture after adding the remaining ingredients. For an hour, simmer on low heat with a cover.

Ladle into glasses, turn off heat, and serve hot or warm. The longan can be consumed, but not the other solid components.
