Hwachae (Korean화채) is a general term for traditional Korean punches, made with various fruits or edible flower petals. The fruits and flowers are soaked in honeyed water or honeyed magnolia berry juice.[1][2][3] In modern South Korea, carbonated drinks and fruit juices are also commonly added to hwachae.[4][5] Hwachae is often garnished with pine nuts before it is served.
