Traditional
All Korean traditional non-alcoholic beverages are referred to as "eumcheongnyu" (음청류 飮淸類). According to historical documents regarding Korean cuisine, almos 200 items of eumcheongnyu are found.[1][2][3] Eumcheongnyu can be divided into the groups of cha (차 tea), tang (탕 boiled water), jang (장 fermented grain juice with sour taste), suksu (숙수), galsu (갈수 thirst water), hwachae (화채 fruit punch), sikhye (식혜 sweet rice drink), sujeonggwa (수정과 persimmon drink), milsu or kkulmul (밀수, 꿀물 honeyed water), jeup (즙 juice) and milk by their ingredient materials and preparation methods. Among the eumcheongnyu, cha, hwachae, sikhye, and sujeonggwa are still widely favored and consumed, however, tang, jang, suksu, galsu are almost disappeared in the present.[4][5]
