Sujeonggwa

Also known as Korean cinnamon punch, sujeonggwa is a popular traditional dessert drink consumed during the Korean festive holidays alongside with sikye (sweet rice drink). It is known to aid indigestion which is why it’s often served with a large meal.

It's made from water, dried persimmon, and cinnamon and has a dark brown color with a sweet and spicy aroma coming from the ginger and can be served both hot or cold. The earliest mention of this drink dates back to 1849 in the book Dongguksesigi by Hong Seok Mo (a book of seasonal customs), and it describes a drink made from the dried persimmon brew with added ginger and pine nuts.
