In Korea, the Dragon Boat Festival is used to worship ancestors, pray for a good year, and bless the body. During the Dragon Boat Festival, Koreans like to eat wormwood cakes, taste cherry tea, and drink Daigo soup.
Eat wormwood cake. Wormwood cake is also known as "wheel cake" because of its resemblance to a wheel. Around the Dragon Boat Festival, the wormwood cake made by picking fresh wormwood leaves and adding japonica rice is very Korean. It is said that wormwood cake can drive away evil spirits and replenish physical strength. In addition, it also has the effect of preventing gastrointestinal diseases, diarrhea, anti-inflammatory and hemostasis.
Taste cherry tea. Fresh cherries are washed and pitted and marinated in sugar or honey. Add Schizandra tea soup and ice cubes to drink in moderation. Cherry tea can relieve heat, relieve fatigue, rejuvenate, and is a good drink for cooling summer heat.
Drink Daigo soup. Daigo soup is a medicinal drink, one of the ancient court drinks. It is made by boiling and cooling with honey, sand kernels, white sandalwood, and grass fruits. Around the Dragon Boat Festival, the Yang Qi is exuberant, and daigo soup has the effect of quenching thirst, so it is popular with people.
