Delicious sips to keep you warm

Facing a chilly winter, a lot of energy is needed to fight the cold. A hot drink will warm the body and please the taste buds at the same time. People across the world know this secret and have created various drinks to accompany them through the long winters.

Here, we pick a few typical and popular winter drinks, telling the stories behind them and offering recipes so you can have a taste yourself.

Sungnyung (Korea)

Sungnyung is a Korean tisane made from boiled scorched rice. This traditional tea can be traced back to the Goryeo period (918 to 1392). People pour hot water over the parched layer of rice on the bottom of the pot. Sometimes they burn it deliberately, roasting rice in a dry pan until it browns and smells nutty, and then brewing it with hot water for about 10 minutes. Its taste is reminiscent of toast, and makes for a refreshing non-caffeinated end to a meal.

Ingredients:

Three cups of cooked rice, warm water

Directions:

Preheat the oven.

Spread the rice on the baking sheet.

Put the baking sheet in the oven and toast the rice until it starts turning brown.

Take the rice and let it steep in a cup of hot water for a few minutes.
