Instructions

1

Roasting the Barley

In a dry skillet over medium heat, add the barley and roast it until it turns golden brown and fragrant, about 10 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid burning.

2

Brewing the Tea

In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, add the roasted barley to the water. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes.

3

Cooling Down

Remove the pot from heat and let the tea cool down to room temperature. Once cooled, strain the tea to remove the barley.

4

Serving

Serve the tea over ice cubes and add sweetener if desired. Enjoy your refreshing Mugicha!
