Gyepi-cha (; "cinnamon tea") is a traditional Korean tea made from cassia cinnamon barks.[3] Thicker sticks of cinnamon with purplish-red cross-section and strong fragrance are used. Dried cinnamon sticks are simmered either whole or sliced with a small amount of ginger. When served, the tea is strained and optionally sweetened with sugar or honey, and then is usually garnished with minced jujubes.
