The difference is that there is no such as acid taste (what you called that) as in the green tea. I will try later again with cold water and sugar.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17807421127818715721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5893380621848637984.post-81998179029560920292012-01-25T00:34:43.219-08:002012-01-25T00:34:43.219-08:00I hate tea but I drink this every day.

My ...Hi, Jisoo! Thanks for reading and commenting!<br /><br />My main problem is that my refrigerator is too small to hold a 2-liter container. When I make this, I have to divide the tea into 4 500-ml. bottles after it cools down. It's very troublesome, but I really love this tea cold in the warmer months!Orchid64https://www.blogger.com/profile/07132543155589881288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5893380621848637984.post-7446429026564917752011-05-08T05:07:44.527-07:002011-05-08T05:07:44.527-07:00It makes me smile while reading.

But the reason one tea bag is for 2 liters is that Korean people drink and treat corn tea like water. With meal or when just thirsty, from the baby to the elderly people drink it. If Anyone ask for some water, in many case , corn tea or barely tea are served so naturally instead of real water.

Then let the bag cool off before storing it in the fridge. You could probably do this a few times especially if your container has a lid. <br /><br />But storing dry leaves I think is a slightly better if not more hygienic, Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05283584941082495985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5893380621848637984.post-92091051511696335012010-12-11T06:21:03.006-08:002010-12-11T06:21:03.006-08:00It is mutilating the neat bags, but perhaps you co...It is mutilating the neat bags, but perhaps you could open one bag and put its contents into a small jar (old jam jar or so) and only put a few leaves into a tea filter (egg filter there? or a cup with tinie holes? or make one from a bit of organza material?), so its just enough to fill one cup. In the Netherlands you can buy a whole pack of say mint leaves, without teabags.
