In cuisine, eucalyptus is used to flavor meats, fish, desserts, and drinks. It is also found in teas, syrups, and candies for its refreshing taste.
A unique recipe is eucalyptus-infused sugar:
Place dried eucalyptus leaves in a jar with 200 g of sugar.
Let it sit for one week, shaking occasionally.
Remove the leaves and use the sugar in tea or desserts.
Interestingly, eucalyptus wood is widely used in construction and furniture making due to its durability.
