Korean Ssanghwa Tea | 12-Herb Mix for Tea & Broth (Ssanghwa-tang) | 3.5 oz
Kosbee Korean Ssanghwa Tea is an all-in-one mix of 12 traditional Korean herbs — including peony, rehmannia, angelica, cnidium, astragalus, cinnamon, licorice, and jujube — grown in Korea, so one pack simmers into a deep, dark herbal tea (ssanghwa-tang) with nothing to measure.
Simmered down, it makes a deep-brown, fragrant, pleasantly bittersweet cup — the kind of warm, aromatic pot you'd find in a traditional Korean teahouse. Each resealable pouch holds 3.5 oz (100 g).
Ssanghwa means "the harmony of two," and ssanghwa-tang is one of the most beloved traditional teas in Korea — the deep, dark, fragrant cup you'd find in an old Korean teahouse, often topped with pine nuts. Kosbee blends 12 Korean-grown herbs for that same time-honored pot, with no added sugar.
What's in the Korean Ssanghwa Tea Mix
This is the complete, pre-balanced blend, so there's nothing to source, measure, or combine — just add the whole pack to water.
- Peony, Rehmannia, Angelica & Cnidium (작약·숙지황·당귀·천궁)
- Deep, earthy, lightly sweet roots that form the dark, fragrant base.
- Astragalus, Pueraria & Solomon's Seal (황기·갈근·황정)
- Woody, mellow roots that round out the body of the brew.
- Cinnamon, Licorice, Jujube, Tangerine Peel & Ginger (육계·감초·대추·진피·건강)
- Sweet, warm, citrusy and spiced notes that balance and finish the blend.
All 12 herbs are listed on the label, so you know exactly what's in the pack.
Korean Herbs, No Added Sugar
Most ssanghwa sold in stores is an instant powder loaded with sugar. Kosbee is a 100% whole-herb mix — real Korean-grown herbs you simmer yourself — with no sugar, dyes, or preservatives.
It is a Product of Korea, so you can see and taste exactly what you're brewing.
How to Make Ssanghwa Tea
Rinse all the herbs, add the whole pack to a pot with about 2 quarts (2 liters) of water, bring to a boil, then simmer on low for an hour or more until the liquid reduces by about half and turns deep brown.
Strain and drink it warm; for the classic Korean teahouse style, float a few pine nuts or jujube slices on top, and add honey if you like.
You can also add the pack when making samgyetang for a deeper, more aromatic herbal baeksuk.
How to Enjoy It Safely
This is a strong, concentrated herbal blend, so start with a lighter brew and enjoy it in moderation.
It contains herbs such as angelica and cnidium and is not recommended during pregnancy or nursing — please talk to your doctor first.
It also contains licorice, so if you have high blood pressure or a heart condition, take prescription medication, or have a fever, talk to your doctor before using it.
