Yuja-cha (Korean: 유자차) or yuja tea is a traditional Korean tea made by mixing hot water with yuja-cheong (yuja marmalade).[1] Yuja tea is popular throughout Korea, especially in the winter.[2] This tea is created by curing yuja into a sweet, thick, pulpy syrup.[3] It does not contain caffeine.[2] It is often sold in markets in large jars and used as a home remedy for the common cold.
Yuja tea is made from the yuja fruit, which is commonly known outside of Korea as yuzu. Yuja does not contain much juice, unlike other citrus fruits. They are able to cook in high temperatures without losing their tartness.[4] Yuja have a strong fragrance. Their scent comes from the zest, juices, and essential oils.[5] Yuja tea is bittersweet. In addition, yuja tea is a preservative, so it can be left out on a shelf or counter.[6]
