SuJeongGwa is a Korean traditional beverage made with mainly cinnamon sticks, ginger, and sugar. Koreans usually drink this beverage as a dessert. Koreans drink it a lot during the holidays. When you look at the ingredients, it has some healthy qualities. It tastes good both hot or cold, but I prefer it cold with ice cubes. Once you make it, you can keep it in the refrigerator quite a long time. There are other Korean beverages that I will show you how to make someday. If you invite some people over for a Korean meal, this can be a good beverage for your meal.

TteokGuk is a traditional Korean new year soup. Korean people celebrate the Lunar New Year, and this soup is the main dish in that holiday meal. On New Year’s morning, we wear HanBok (Korean traditional clothes) and greet (bow) grandparents, parents, or relatives. Older people give a blessing for the new year to their children along with some money called “SaeBatDon” (새뱃돈)”. After greeting the older people, family and relatives eat breakfast together. The meal will have New Year’s soup, different kinds of vegetable dishes, fish, jeons, japvchae, galbi jjim, and so on. Since Koreans calculate their age according to New Year, and not on their birthday, eating the bowl of New Year soup on New Year’s Day means becoming one year older. It might sound like a crazy idea, but we joke about it. I don’t want to eat more than one bowl of New Year’s soup, because I don’t want to become more than one year older. hehe
