Citron tea

Citron tea
Winter is here, and it is also the season when pomelo is on the market in large quantities. People can easily get angry in dry weather. Drinking a cup of pomelo tea every day is quite good for your body!
The price of grapefruit tea in supermarkets is generally between 30 and 50 yuan. It will be gone after drinking it for less than a month. Moreover, the taste is sweet and it is made mechanically. It seems that the effect of removing the heat is not obvious ~~
The entire cost of the grapefruit tea I made is only a few yuan. It is simply too affordable!

The following describes the production process

The first thing is to choose pomelo. I have five tips
1. Select a tip rather than a circle (the sharper the better)
2. Choose the big one rather than the small one (the big one will be better and mature one)
3. Choose yellow rather than blue (yellow ones mature earlier than blue ones)
4. Choose weight rather than light (heavy fruits are fuller)
5. When selecting pomelo, hold down the bottom with your finger. It's best if you can't press it!!

The grapefruit selected by five methods is quite delicious ~~~

Steps for Citron tea

  • Make  step 0
    1
    Soak the grapefruit in hot water for about 10 minutes. The grapefruit usually seals the skin with a layer of wax in order to look beautiful, so we need to gently rub it with edible salt to make the skin cleaner! Grapefruit peel is also very important during the production process.

    Peel off the grapefruit peel and scrape off the white flesh inside. It is best to scrape slowly with a knife, the thinner the better. This is done to reduce the bitterness.

    Cut the grapefruit skin into thin slices with a knife and cut it into thin threads, the thinner the better!! This is to ensure the taste of the finished product.

    Remove the outer film and seeds from the grapefruit pulp, and then peel it into pieces! Don't peel it too finely, because the grapefruit pulp will naturally disperse during the cooking process.

    When you are ready, you can put it in the pan and cook. First, add appropriate amount of rock sugar. After boiling, add the chopped grapefruit peel and cook for about 10 minutes to allow it to fully absorb the sweetness of the rock sugar water.

    It is worth noting that the yuja tea must be cooled down before adding honey. Otherwise, the nutritional value of the honey will be destroyed.
