Steps for Honey red pomelo tea

1
Grapefruit usually seals the skin with a layer of wax in order to look beautiful, so gently rub the grapefruit with salt and then rinse it clean.
2
Use a peel knife to peel off the outer skin of the grapefruit. When peeling, make sure to be thin. Try to only peel the yellow part, and the white part can be selected according to your taste. The first layer of grapefruit is the grapefruit peel, which is the essence of grapefruit to eliminate phlegm and suppress cough. Then there is the white flesh between the grapefruit peel and the grapefruit pulp, which is the most bitter part of grapefruit.
3
Use a knife to scrape off the white flesh inside as much as possible, and cut the sliced grapefruit skin into thin threads with a knife, the thinner the better.
4
Rub the grapefruit peel vigorously with salt to separate out the bitterness, and then wash it with clean water. This step can be repeated two to three times. Soak the grapefruit peel in clear water and add some salt to the water to help remove the bitterness. The soaking time needs to be longer and you can soak for one night.
5
Put the soaked grapefruit peel in clear water and cook for about 10 minutes. Add some salt when cooking to also remove the bitterness. Finally, rinse the grapefruit peel with clear water and drain the water.
6
Peel off the grapefruit meat and tear it up.
7
Put the grapefruit meat and grapefruit peel into a clean oil-free pan, add water and rock sugar, and cook over medium to medium heat.
8
Cook until it is sticky and the grapefruit skin is golden and translucent. It takes about 1 hour. Be careful to stir frequently when boiling to avoid sticking to the pan.
9
After cooling, add honey, stir well to make honey grapefruit tea. You can put the prepared grapefruit tea in a blender and break it, put it in a container to seal it, put it in the refrigerator for refrigeration, and you can drink it after 3 days. The longer the time it is left, the weaker the bitterness becomes.

Five tips for selecting pomelo: 1. Choose a tip rather than a round one. The sharper the better. 2. Choose the big one rather than the small one. It will be better if the big one is mature. 3. Choose yellow rather than blue. Yellow is more mature than blue. 4. Choose the weight rather than the light. The heavy fruit is fuller. 5. When selecting grapefruit, press the bottom with your fingers, and it is best if you can't press it. The grapefruit selected after passing these five tests is "quite delicious"!
