How to Enjoy Korean-Style · Korean Serving Ideas

The many ways Korean households enjoy Oksusu-cha — in a water jug, at the dinner table, across all four seasons.

Boribap Style
식사용 음료
In Korean households, Oksusu-cha is always kept on the dining table. Enjoyed alongside warm, boldly seasoned dishes such as Bibimbap, Bulgogi, or Kimchi Jjigae, it cleanses the palate between bites and makes each mouthful even more enjoyable.
Hot Tea
따뜻한 차
Steep one tea bag in 500–700ml of boiling water for 5–10 minutes and enjoy warm. This is the most common way Korean families drink it during cold winters. Being completely caffeine-free, it can also be enjoyed without worry right before bedtime.
Iced Tea
시원한 보리차 대용
Brew a strong batch in a large pot, let it cool, and store in the fridge. An essential summer drink on Korean tables, it is one of the most popular thirst-quenching beverages alongside Boricha (barley tea). It pairs especially well with rich, oily Korean dishes like Samgyeopsal or Jeyuk Bokkeum.
Samgyeopsal Pairing
삼겹살 곁들임
The classic pairing for Korean grilled Samgyeopsal or Jeyuk Bokkeum is a cold glass of Oksusu-cha. Its nutty character enhances the flavour of the meat while naturally cutting through the richness and refreshing the palate.
Spicy Food Companion
매운 음식 동반자
When eating spicy Korean dishes such as Tteokbokki, Kimchi Jjigae, or spicy Ramyeon, a cup of Oksusu-cha gently soothes the heat. Richer in flavour than plain water and lighter than fizzy drinks, it is a comfortable companion throughout the entire meal.
Bibimbap & Jeyuk
비빔밥·제육볶음과 함께
Serving Oksusu-cha alongside Gochujang-seasoned Bibimbap or spicy Jeyuk Bokkeum completes a true Korean home-style spread. In Korea, it is a drink enjoyed naturally both during and after the meal.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What kind of drink is Surasang Clear Water Corn Tea (Oksusu-cha)? What does it taste like?

Surasang Clear Water Corn Tea is a traditional Korean grain tea made from a single ingredient: roasted corn. It has a clear golden colour and, unlike coffee or black tea, contains no caffeine. The flavour is nutty with a natural, gentle sweetness — similar in style to European barley tea or corn silk tea, but with a richer roasted grain aroma. It can be enjoyed both hot and cold, making it a year-round drink.

Is this product suitable for vegans and vegetarians?

Yes, Surasang Clear Water Corn Tea is 100% suitable for both vegans and vegetarians. The only ingredient is roasted corn, and it contains absolutely no animal-derived components. It is also Halal certified and Gluten-Free, making it a safe choice for people following a wide variety of dietary requirements.

Can people with gluten intolerance or coeliac disease drink this?

The ingredient in Surasang Clear Water Corn Tea is roasted corn, which does not contain gluten. It has been confirmed as a Gluten-Free product. However, the possibility of cross-contamination with other allergens in the manufacturing facility has not been officially confirmed by the manufacturer. Those who are highly sensitive to cross-contamination are advised to contact the manufacturer (Surasang) directly before purchasing.

How do I prepare and store Oksusu-cha?

Preparation: Bring 1 litre of water to the boil, add approximately 10–15g of corn tea, and steep for 5–10 minutes. For a stronger flavour, steep for longer. Enjoy hot immediately, or allow to cool and refrigerate for a refreshing iced drink. Storage: Before opening, store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. After opening, seal tightly in an airtight container to keep out moisture and use as soon as possible. Brewed tea kept in the refrigerator is best consumed within 2–3 days.

What is the cultural significance of Oksusu-cha in Korea? How does it compare to European drinks?

In Korea, Oksusu-cha is one of the most popular everyday grain teas, often drunk in place of water. It is served in restaurants as a complimentary drink instead of water, and kept ready in the fridge at home — deeply embedded in the rhythm of daily Korean life. Compared to European drinking culture, it plays a similar role to French herbal tisanes or German barley tea: a relaxed, caffeine-free everyday beverage. It reflects a minimalist tea culture that celebrates the natural, wholesome flavour of a single ingredient with no additives.
