HB-15884 · Hand-built original · Korean
A warming Korean tea simmered from fresh ginger and cinnamon sticks, softened with honey. Pine nuts floated on top give each cup a delicate, nutty finish.

Pairs well with: rice cakes, dried persimmon, walnuts, yaksik
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 oz ginger
- 1.1 oz cinnamon sticks
- 1.1 oz honey
- pine nuts, a little
- 6 1/3 cups water
Method
- Peel the ginger and shave it into thin slices so its heat infuses quickly.
- Rinse the cinnamon sticks briefly under running water to wash away any dust.
- Combine the ginger, cinnamon and water in a pot, bring to a boil, then simmer until the liquid turns deep amber and spicy, about 30 minutes in total.
- Take the pot off the heat and stir in the honey until it dissolves into the hot tea.
- Strain into cups and float a few pine nuts over each serving.
