KOREAN GINGER TEA



Korean Ginger Tea image

From koreanrecipes.org.If spicy is not your thing,don't boil it for that long.Just a little simmer to get it just the way you like it.Koreans eat very spicy food so I'm not surprised by boiling it for 25-30 minutes.Even though I love hot food,for me even the 15 minutes was too much.I suggest to taste it and turn off the heat when is suites your taste.

Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 cups boiling water
2 teaspoons tea
1 cinnamon stick
1 lemon

Steps:

  • Steep tea and cinnamon stick together for 5 minutes.
  • Strain.
  • Serve with lemon wedge.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality cinnamon: Look for Ceylon cinnamon, which has a milder flavor and is considered to be the "true" cinnamon. Cassia cinnamon is more common and has a stronger flavor.
  • Freshly grind your cinnamon: Grinding your own cinnamon just before using it will release the most flavor and aroma.
  • Use a fine mesh strainer: When straining the tea, use a fine mesh strainer to catch any small pieces of cinnamon.
  • Sweeten to taste: If you like your tea sweet, add honey, sugar, or another sweetener to taste.
  • Add other spices: For a more complex flavor, add other spices such as ginger, cardamom, or cloves.
  • Enjoy cinnamon tea hot or cold: Cinnamon tea can be enjoyed hot or cold. If you're having it cold, be sure to chill it for at least 2 hours before serving.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon tea is a delicious and healthy beverage that can be enjoyed year-round. It's a great way to warm up on a cold day or cool down on a hot day. Cinnamon tea is also a good source of antioxidants, which can help protect your body from damage caused by free radicals. So next time you're looking for a healthy and refreshing drink, reach for a cup of cinnamon tea.
