Sungnyung

Sungnyung is a really cool drink that comes from Korea. It's made from something called "nurungji" which is basically crispy rice. You know when you cook rice and sometimes it sticks to the bottom of the pot and gets crispy? That's nurungji!

So what you do is you take some of that crispy rice and you mix it with hot water. Then you let it sit for a while so the rice can give all of its yummy flavors to the water. Finally, you strain out all the rice bits and what you're left with is a delicious and healthy drink!

Some people like to add a little bit of honey or sugar to sweeten it up, or they add a little bit of salt to make it more refreshing. But really, sungnyung is great just the way it is!

Some people even say that sungnyung can help with things like digestion and improving your energy levels. So not only is it yummy, but it's good for you too!

So that's sungnyung - a delicious and healthy drink made from crispy rice that's perfect for any time of day!
