This is a simple list of Korean beverages with the Korean and English meanings.
Beverages are consumed by Koreans while eating with friends or at office meetups. Since Koreans have a huge culture of drinking all sorts of alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages.
The popularity of whiskey and their very own Soju and Makgeolli ( rice wine ) is known to every Korean since both are delicious and easy to remember. Since most of the beverages names are derived from English pronunciation should not be a problem for English speakers.
There are various classes of beverages depending on the ingredients.There are a large variety of drinks in Korea.
Although alcoholic drinks are pretty popular, non-alcoholic drinks like soybean milk, fresh juice, and yogurt smoothie are also enjoyed by Koreans. This list includes the names of beverages including alcohol, soda, and water.
