Maesil-cheong (매실ì²), known as Korean plum extract or green plum syrup, is a traditional Korean cordial made by fermenting green plums with sugar. This syrup has a distinctive sweet and tangy flavour profile with a rich, fruity aroma, creating a perfect balance of tastes. It is a highly versatile ingredient in the Korean pantry, commonly used to make a refreshing plum tea (maesil-cha) by simply diluting it with hot or cold water. You can also use it as a natural sweetener in marinades for meat dishes like bulgogi, as a base for salad dressings, or drizzled over desserts for a unique flavour. For a simple summer drink, mix a few spoonfuls with sparkling water and ice. This all-natural extract contains no artificial colouring or preservatives, making it a staple in Korean households for both culinary and wellness purposes.
