Jujube, Jujube

Later, in 1768, Philip Miller concluded it was sufficiently distinct from Rhamnus to merit separation into a new genus, in which he named it Ziziphus jujube , using Linnaeus' species name for the genus but with a probably accidental single letter spelling difference, 'i' for 'y'; for the species name he used a different name, as tautonyms (repetition of exactly the same name in the genus and species) are not permitted in botanical naming. However, because of Miller's slightly different spelling, the combination correctly using the earliest species name (from Linnaeus) with the new genus, Ziziphus zizyphus , is not a tautonym, and therefore permitted as a botanical name; this combination was made by Hermann Karsten in 1882. Clarke, D. L. (1988).

In mainland China, Korea, and Taiwan, a sweetened tea syrup containing jujube fruits is available in glass jars, photo and canned jujube tea or jujube tea in the form of teabags is also available.

It is also dried and used in desserts, such as sm b lng, a cold beverage that includes the dried jujube, longan, fresh seaweed, barley, and lotus seeds.
