Herbal Tea & White Sofas: Why South Korean Singer LeeHi Takes Tea, Not Coffee
A cup of java may boast a variety of well-documented health benefits, but curing a sore throat isn’t one of them. This goes doubly if you’re a singer: maintaining your natural instrument is as crucial as a guitarist periodically visiting a luthier.
South Korean singer LeeHi clearly had this in mind while filming her episode of Herbal Tea & White Sofas, GRAMMY.com’s series where musicians reveal what’s on their riders.
“There’s a tea called Throat Coat — someone gave it to me when I was on tour,” she tells GRAMMY.com. “I drank it when I lost my voice, and it was really effective.”
Aside from vocal health, LeeHi also praises the deliciousness of fried jokbal and the mindset that helps her have a great show.
In the latest episode of Herbal Tea & White Sofas, get to know LeeHi better via her backstage rituals — then take a listen to her latest album, 2021’s 4 Only.
