3 Popular Korean Drinks You Need to Try

Many trends from South Korea have been spreading around the world lately, and today we’re sharing the most popular drinks you can try while visiting the country or even try recreating at home until we get to travel again! 

Dalgona Coffee

Dalgona coffee went viral a few months ago and for a good reason. It’s delicious, easy to make, and you probably already have all the ingredients at home. You only need instant coffee, sugar, water, and dairy or non-dairy milk. The trick with dalgona coffee is to mix the ingredients until you get a thick, smooth consistency that will hold shape after being transferred into a glass or mug.

Soju

Soju is a Korean drink that’s distilled from fermented rice, wheat, barley, tapioca, or sweet potatoes. It’s classified as a spirit and has high levels of alcohol in it. Chill it before serving and pour it into small shot glasses. Another way Koreans consume soju is by dripping a shot of it in their beer.

Milkis

If a thought of sparkling milk sounds interesting, you need to try milkis. It’s an unusual drink that combines milk, corn syrup, and carbonation into a sweet, fizzy liquid that’s unlike anything you’ve ever tried.
