Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 The raw materials are ready. I specially chose large pieces of white rock sugar for the rock sugar. I chose loquat honey for the honey. I also prepared a small round pot to soak the grapefruit peels in it.

   

2. 2 Sprinkle some salt on the grapefruit peel, because grapefruits on the market are now coated with wax on the surface in order to look good. Rub and clean with salt to wash off the wax layer, then pour boiling water and soak for about 10 minutes.

   

3. 3 The grapefruit peel is taking a bath, so let’s clean up the grapefruit flesh. Remove the inner membrane and seeds of the grapefruit, and break the grapefruit flesh into small pieces, as small as possible, but not too broken, because it will fall apart on its own during the cooking process.

   

4. 4 Time's up~! Take the grapefruit peel out of the bath and cut it into small strips for easy handling.

   

5. 5 Remove the white part inside the grapefruit peel and be patient in scraping it. The thinner the better, otherwise the finished product will have a bitter taste.

   

6. 6 After removing the white part, cut the grapefruit peel into as thin strips as possible. People like me who are not good at knife skills can only cut it slowly.

   

7. 7 Now comes the cooking stage~ Hold a pot, pour hot water, and add rock sugar. I actually put three pieces in, but it was too late to take the photo, and the small piece could not wait to melt into the water. Embarrassing.

   

8. 8 After all the rock sugar has melted, add the shredded grapefruit peels and see how bright they are in the pot.

   

9. 9 Some children's shoes have to ask, how long should they be cooked? It's easy to handle, just pick it up with chopsticks and it's ready when it's almost translucent. Then it’s Yuzu Rourou’s turn~!

   

10. 10 Pour in the grapefruit meat, bring to a boil, then turn to low heat and simmer slowly. The sizzling sound is particularly interesting. Use a small spoon to stir during this period to prevent it from sticking to the pan.

    

11. 11 After about half an hour, the water has almost evaporated, and then you can see that the grapefruit has changed color. This may be the effect of the rock sugar. Then turn off the heat and take the semi-finished product down to cool. Remember, it must be cool~cool~cool~cool~

    

12. 12 After cooling, the grapefruit turned into another color. Why was it said before that it was still a semi-finished product? Because the honey hasn’t appeared yet~

    

13. 13 Dang dang dang~ honey comes into play, usually acacia honey is used, but I think loquat honey is better, clearing the lungs and reducing fire, maybe it’s because of my personal taste. Pour half a bottle of honey into the grapefruit tea, stir evenly~finished~! Container~!

    

14. 14 I don’t have a jar at home, so I have no choice but to put it in glass. The sealing is quite good. Dear readers~ Let’s make some tea~~
