Citron tea, also known as "yujacha" in Korean, is a traditional tea that has been enjoyed in Korea for centuries. It is often used as a herbal remedy for colds and flu due to its high vitamin C content. The citron, a fruit that resembles a lemon but with a more fragrant aroma and a less tart flavor, is considered a treasure in Korean cuisine for its unique taste and health benefits. Interestingly, the citron used in this tea is not only the juice; the rind and even a bit of the pith is preserved in sugar to create a marmalade-like mixture, which is then mixed with hot water to create the tea. This method of preparation allows the tea to capture the full range of flavors and health benefits from the citron fruit.
