Authentic Korean Food · Authentic Korean Rice Drink
Sikhye is a traditional Korean rice drink beloved as a festive beverage and after-meal dessert drink. It is made by slowly saccharifying rice starch with the natural enzymes of barley malt (yeotgireum), resulting in a delicately sweet flavour with a smooth texture featuring soft rice grains. If you are familiar with European horchata or rice milk, Sikhye offers a similarly comforting concept — yet lighter, cleaner, and uniquely Korean in character.

Sikhye is a traditional Korean rice drink. It is made through an enzymatic saccharification process in which the enzymes in barley malt (yeotgireum) break down rice starch into natural sugars — it is not a fermented drink. The flavour is sweet, light, and refreshing, with a subtle hint of ginger. The drink contains small, softly cooked rice grains that give it a distinctive texture. It is somewhat reminiscent of a drinkable European rice pudding, but considerably lighter and sweeter. Best enjoyed well chilled.

No. Sikhye is not a fermented drink. It is made through enzymatic saccharification, in which the amylase enzymes present in barley malt slowly break down rice starch to produce natural sweetness. No microbial fermentation is involved in this process, and therefore no probiotic content or gut health effects should be expected. Sikhye is a sweet, refreshing traditional Korean beverage enjoyed for its own unique flavour.
Before opening, store in a cool place away from direct sunlight. After opening, refrigerate and consume on the same day. The best way to enjoy it is to chill it thoroughly in the refrigerator and drink it cold. The rice grains may settle at the bottom of the can, so give it a gentle shake before drinking. You can also mix it 1:1 with sparkling water for a lighter, more refreshing experience, or pour it over vanilla ice cream for a Korean-style float dessert.
