PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain licorice tea with some sweetness, easy to drink, excellent in fanciness, and useful for human health etc., by roasting the aboveground portions of licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra). SOLUTION: The aboveground portions of licorice such as stems, leaves, flowers and seeds are dried and ground, being then put into a vessel such as a frying-pan where they are roasted e.g. at 90-150 deg.C for 1-15min. Subsequently, the roasted portions are spread so as not to be persistent in moldering odor and left to stand for 0.5-3 hand allowed to cool. The other objective licorice tea beverage is obtained by subjecting the licorice tea obtained above to extraction at room temperature (water) to 90 deg.C (hot water). In this case, it is preferable that the weight ratio of the licorice tea to water be 1:(500-3000). |
