Misugaru (Multigrain Powder Drink)
Ingredients · Servings 1
  • 1 cup water
  • 1.5 Tbsp honey (or 2 tsp sugar per 1 cup water)
  • 3 Tbsp Misugaru
  • 5-6 ice cubes
Method · 3 min
  1. Make Honey or Sugar water. My favorite is honey water but you can make sugar water or even do part honey and sugar. Use room temp water to make dissolving honey or sugar easier. I gave you a range of sweetness. In order to balance with the ice and powder, it should be a little bit on the sweet side but it's up to you.
  2. HONEY WATER - for 1 cup of water, add 1 1/2 Tbs (for less sweet) up to 2 Tbs of honey (if you like sweet). Mix until dissolved.
  3. SUGAR WATER - for 1 cup of water, add 2 tsp up to 4 tsp sugar. Mix until dissolved.
  4. Get a bowl or a cup. Bowl works better if you are going to follow my recipe and not mix everything. Add the honey or sugar water and some ice cubes. 4-6 ice cubes per bowl.
  5. Sprinkle 3 to 4 Tbs Misugaru on top of the ice honey/sugar water. Swirl it around a few times with your spoon until some of it gets mixed in, BUT NOT ALL and then enjoy!! Use your spoon or drink directly from the bowl or cup but becareful not to inhale the powder!

It's a popular icy summer drink that's slightly sweet with great nuttiness from the powder. Recipes with honey water or milk are both included.
