Korean Traditional Omija Tea Berries Five Flavor Berry Schisandra Cha

Omija Tea, it’s one of those old-school Korean traditional teas. healthy beverages that I could cool down with especially after work or dinner. Stick type.

My mom would always tell me to drink some – but I couldn’t be bothered, with a Coke in hand.

Now, at the age of thirty-something, I find myself looking for healthy beverages (other than water) that I could cool down with – especially after work or dinner.

For a few months, I relied on Flavored Sparkling Water. Then Ginger Ale (Canada Dry – woot woot!). To Korean Black Vinegar.

And now, our go-to drink is Omija Tea. Best of all, it’s guilt-free!

Omija Berries (also known as Schisandra Berries) are famous for its medicinal properties.

These dark red berries provide powerful antioxidant protection – helping to remove free radicals and other toxins in your body that cause damage at the cellular level.

The berries also function to enhance the body’s natural resistance to stress, supporting mental endurance and enhancing metabolic efficiency (i.e. your body’s ability to use up stored nutrients).

And much more – do a quick Google search.

Note: A few of our readers mentioned that Schisandra Berries may not be safe for pregnant women. So if you are an expecting mother, I recommend avoiding these berries - to be extra safe!

The best part about Omija Berries is their five-flavors! Take a nibble of the fresh berries and you’ll taste bitter, sweet, sour (tart), salty and spicy.

You'll taste the bitter and spicy distinctly if you bite into the seeds!

Now in Korea, we like to steep dried omija berries in cold water and enjoy it as an refreshing, iced tea in the Summer.

When steeped in cold water, you don’t necessarily taste all five flavors – for me, it's more like 3 flavors (sour, salty and slightly-bitter).

Well, you could also taste sweet too, if you add a touch of sugar at the end.
