26, Jalan Hujan Rahmat 2, Taman Overseas Union, 58200 KL
清肝茶 Release Lever Heat Tea $2 
猫须草 $2
Review: Bought the 桔饼 (3 pcs for $4.80), went for vegetarian dinner and return back to the Herb shop for some Herb Tea. Asked for something 清热 and was recommended the 清肝茶 (directly translation was "Release Lever Heat Tea"), google says its detoxification to return lever to normal function.
Below first picture glass shows 清肝茶 and second glass shows 猫须草, it looks the same but 猫须草 was definitely more bitter and stronger. 
猫须草 (Pokok Misai Kuching or Orthosiphon Aristatus), a plant quite commonly found here in our country. You can see the flower posted below (just before the 猫须草 herb tea), at Herbal Garden, KL 吉隆坡草药园. 
From Google:
功效分类:清热药;利尿通淋药。 
  性味:味甘;淡;微苦;性凉。 
  功效:清热利湿;通淋排石。 
  主治:急慢性肾炎;膀胱炎;尿路结石;胆结石;风湿性关节炎。
I think 猫须草 is an old man's herbal tea.
