DELICIOUS DISHES INFUSED WITH MAESIL
MAESIL ICED TEA
INTRODUCTION
For all of you out there who like experimenting, here is one way you could make iced tea with Maesil syrup:
First of all, just to provide a little piece of the Korean culture I know (and also because the recipe is so simple there will be a lot of leftover space on this page), I wanted to share what Maesil tea is known for. Over the years, Maesil has grown to be known for its medicinal benefits. Maesil syrup is made out of fermenting the fruit, and fermented food/drinks are known to possess helpful probiotics that are good for your digestive flow.
7 reasons to include maesil in your diet:
High in antioxidants
Promotes gastrointestinal health
Good for heart health
Helps the body eliminate toxins
Prevents cavities & gum disease
Good for the liver
Strengthens & improves bone health
INGREDIENTS
I’m hoping with the brief info I just shared, you become enamored with Maesil and Maesil syrup as my family and I had.
Now, let’s finally get to what you’re here for – the recipe! I included the best recipe I tasted following @colorful.palate instructions. I’m including it below so you can try it too!
1.5 oz Maesil Syrup
6 oz Sparkling water
1 Rosemary sprig, bruised
Few slices of lemon
Ice
INSTRUCTIONS
Fill glass 3/4 of the way with ice. Add lemon slices and rosemary sprig. You can use a pestle, muddler or mallet to gently bruise/pound the rosemary on a cutting board to release the aromatic oils. Add Maesil syrup, and top with sparkling water.
Optional: Garnish with edible flowers and rosemary sprig. Stir and enjoy!
FINAL NOTES
We also refer to this drink as Maesil spritzer but because we plan to share a REAL spritzer recipe (with some alcohol) with you in a future post, we didn’t want to call it the same thing 😊
You could also enjoy this drink with flat water instead of sparking water, or with hot water as well! When I make a hot Maesil tea, I combine 6 oz of hot water with 1.5 oz of Maesil syrup, and add 5-8 pine nuts for texture. Get creative and enjoy!
