Today we're going to make delicious Korean traditional tea

With these!

What is it?

Pomegranate!

Pomegranate, in Korean "Seoklyu" (석류)

So we call this seoklyu

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

Very very easy, simple

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

Really big, huge!

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

Cut in half like this

Oooh! Juicy!

We need to take out the seeds and you need something

any object in your house

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

Don't hit your finger, like this

All coming out even some juice, you can see

So fun!

See? Nothing much!

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

Get every last seeds

Ok, done

And then you'll see some membranes

Just pick it out

And then, the other half

my next pomegranate

When you do this, little splash this juice

So be sure not to wear white clothes

my last one

How about that? We can do some rythm

Oh! More fun! Isn't it?

You guys can dance!

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

He used like a nail

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

In my case, it's like

(laughs)

What about you guys?

Beautiful, beautiful

Discard

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

You can serve this

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.
