Today we're going to make delicious Korean traditional tea

Pomegranate, in Korean "Seoklyu" (석류)

"Seok-lyu-cha" (석류차) is pomegranate tea

You guys are going to be very very surprised: "What? That's so easy!"

Everybody knows that pomegranate is good for your health

When I lived in Korea, I used to make seoklyu-cha, but seoklyu was so expensive

Usually the peak season is late fall, but these days in America I can see this all year around

Korean seoklyu is smaller, maybe one third the size of these and also really intense taste

But America and Canada this pomegranate, I don't know,  probably this is imported ones

I'm going to use these two pomegranates to make good tea

When you choose these, first always choose the nice and smooth with no bruise, no brownish stuff and clean and also beautiful red colour

Usually, inside the fruits, very nice and pretty color but if this is too brownish, when you open these also the fruit is going to look a little bit like rotten, so be sure to find the good-quality pomegranate.

I've just washed these and nicely cleaned and made this guy shiny!

And then, we're going to take out all the seeds

We need to take out the seeds and you need something

I'm using a wooden spoon or whatever it is, we need to knock out the seeds!

All coming out even some juice, you can see

But let's do this last thing, just take out with your finger these guys

When you do this, little splash this juice

When I was young, my father was working on something like on the wall

My father was always asking me to bring the hammer, bring something, and I got to always watch my father

And then my father, I saw like he was very focused on something and his face is like, mouth is kinda weird

I saw that a lot of people when they're focused on doing something they have like an especial expression

If you don't make tea, just eat it this way

Keep in the refrigerator to make it cold or in the freezer for thirty minutes and serve this in  a small bowl as a desert. Or just like me, you guys can meake tea.

3 and a half cups of pomegranate seeds from two large pomegranates

Pomegranate, each seed, its surface is like plastic

So we need to pound this, crush it a little bit

We are going to make tea right after this

And after finishing all my pomegranate tea, I hope my complexion is better. [laughs]

Really beautiful pink color and filled with pomegranate seeds

It sould be delicious and have a really good flavour

This color is a natural color from the pomegranate

And after finishing this cup, I feel a little healthier

Today, we've made Seoklyu-cha (석류차): pomegranate tea
