Korean Corn Silk Tea | Roasted · Dasong | 80 Tea Bags
Korean corn silk tea is a roasted grain-style tea made in Korea from roasted corn and corn silk, brewed as a light, toasty, caffeine-free everyday drink, hot or iced.
Corn silk tea (oksusu suyeom cha) is one of Korea's most familiar daily teas — the kind kept in the fridge by the pitcher. This Dasong blend pairs roasted corn (82%) with corn silk (15%), so the cup leans warm and toasty, often compared to popcorn or roasted barley tea, with no bitterness and no added sugar. Each box holds 80 tea bags of 1.5 g.

How to brew corn silk tea
How do you brew a hot cup?
Steep one tea bag in 3.5–5 fl oz (100–150 mL) of hot water at 175–195°F (80–90°C) for 2–3 minutes, then sip. Leave the bag in longer for a deeper, toastier cup.
How do you make a cold pitcher?
Boil 34–68 fl oz (1–2 L) of water, turn off the heat, add 2–3 tea bags, and steep for about 10 minutes. Cool and refrigerate, then drink it chilled in place of plain water — the way it is served in many Korean homes.
Safety & good to know
Avoid this tea if you have a corn allergy. If you are pregnant or nursing, have a kidney condition, or take medication, check with your healthcare provider before drinking it regularly. It is a food and beverage, not intended to treat any condition.
Corn silk tea vs barley tea — what's the difference?
Both are classic Korean caffeine-free daily teas brewed by the cup or the pitcher. Barley tea (boricha) is made from roasted barley and tastes clean and lightly toasty — but it contains gluten. Corn silk tea is made from corn and corn silk, so it is naturally gluten-free by ingredient, with a slightly sweeter, popcorn-like roast. Many Korean households keep both and alternate.
