I Miss Sikhye!

Sikhye is not a guy, nor a Kpop artist.

Sikhye is this:
COOL DRINK: Sikhye or also known as Korean Rice Beverage
Credits: Shira @ Naver

I just got back from badminton and at times like this I really wished I could drink Sikhye! I, no I mean anyone who goes to Jim Jil Bang 찜질방 in Korea will definitely order a bottle of Sikhye to cool down themselves. You'll also see some ajummas selling Sikhye at tourist sites like hiking areas or waterfalls.

TOP 6 THINGS YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT SIKHYE (식혜)

  1. It's pronounced as Shik - Hye!
  2. It's sweet!
  3. It's fermented from Korean rice!
  4. It's readily available in cans or plastic bottles!
  5. It's a local popular beverage among the Koreans especially at public saunas!
  6. It helps digestion!

If you're ever going to Korea, do order a bottle of 식혜 Sikhye! It would cost around 1000 won a bottle. :)
