- 1 cup of honey or sugar (adjust to taste)
- 4 cups of hot water

Place the sliced yuja in a jar or bowl, making layers with honey or sugar. Press down slightly to help release the juices.

Add 4 cups of hot water to dilute the mixture. Stir well to combine.
- 6.
If desired, add freshly grated ginger and lemon juice for an extra kick.
