*Jasmine Hwayo: Pour 1 cup of hot water over 8 grams of jasmine tea leaves. After five minutes, discard the tea, reserving the “washed” tea leaves. Steep the tea leaves in 1 cup of Hwayo Soju 41 for 25 minutes, fine-strain, and discard the leaves. Strain a second time through cheesecloth to catch any remaining particles. Makes enough jasmine-infused soju for several drinks.
