It is good, and I occasionally drink it in the afternoon when I don't want
something caffeinated. Keep the stuff refrigerated, though, or it will go
bad. In Korean markets down here, I see the Sam Hwa brand and the Da Jung
brand.
Sadly, I don't see citron for sale fresh around here ever, which is a
shame since it makes a great marmalade and is good in fruitcakes and
gingerbread cookies too.
Another interesting Korean tisane is the "ginger tea" which comes in
little pellets. I rather like that in the afternoon as well.
