Yujacha (also spelled yuja cha) is a Korean traditional tea made from thinly sliced yuzu (Japanese ユズ, 柚, 柚子 (yuzu); 유자 (yuja) in Korean; from Chinese 柚子, yòu zi) with its peel and combined with honey or sugar. A tablespoon of yucheong (유청, thick syrup-like yuzu) stirred into a cup of usually hot water makes a beverage. The color is yellow and its form looks like marmalade. The yuzu fruit itself has a strong sour and bitter taste, so Korean people make it preserved and sweetened for making tea. It is usually drunk during winter and contains abundant Vitamin C. Yujacha is also used as a herbal remedy for the common cold and similar winter illnesses.
Yujacha can either be made at home or purchased in glass jars.
