Chef's Tips
Adjust the amount of Yujacha to your liking. It provides both sweetness and citrus flavor.
For a stronger ginger flavor, simmer the ginger for a longer time (up to 10 minutes).
You can add other spices like star anise or cloves for a more complex flavor profile.
If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger. Add it after removing the saucepan from the heat and let it steep for a few minutes before serving.
