How to distinguish Sikhye and Makgeolli?
Someone had the same question. But can someone explain it in English?

Question

Answer

Both made from fermented rice but Makgeolli is a alcoholic beverage, and Sikhye is non-alcoholic.
Also they looks quite different. Makgeolli is milky and Sikhye contains grains of cooked rice.
I can't tell you difference in taste between them, cause I'm not legal age for drinking alcohol.
But Sikhye is sweet. Hope this helps.

Answer

Well... sikhye is sweet.  I've made makgeolli, and it is a starchy-sour drink.
