Beverages

Posted in August 2nd, 2008

I’ve had many unique beverages here in Korea; brown rice and green teas, ginseng drinks, various rice-based soft drinks. Here’s one I found the other day with real bits of aloe floating around. Who knew it isn’t just for sunburn anymore?

People drink weird things here, too. For instance, celery juice is really popular. Probably aloe, too.

It’s interesting to see what other cultures and nations consider drinkable, isn’t it?

I saw a program on the Food Network recently where the host, traveling in South America (Chile, maybe?), sampled a local delicacy of fresh mule milk. He literally walked up to a guy on the street, handed over some money, and the guy milked his mule into a small cup and handed it to him.
