Korea: Wild Pear

Wild pears grow deep in the forest and are considered the ancestors of the cultivated eating pear.  They are much smaller than normal, similar to cider apples. Wild pears cannot be eaten raw and must be dried into tea or boiled into jam or syrup.  What these amazing superfruits lack in size and appearance, they make up for with five times more efficacy than normal pears.  We recommend brewing it for 5-10 minutes to extract all the flavor, and it can be poured over ice for an amazing thirst quencher!
