Coconut Tamarind Jamu Jamu
It is time to jamu....don't you agree?
The word jamu comes from the Javanese language, Jampi and Usada. Jampi means mantra, usada means medicine for health. So Jamu is a prayer or medicine to improve health.
I love the options available once you get the jamu bug. Get all your healthy ingredients out and begin your mixology. It is a lot of fun. Just make sure you have ginger in the mix somewhere. Turmeric is also very popular, but doesn't appear in this recipe. This is a creamy one, and we loved it. It was very different to the others.
I cannot wait to see you enjoy the health benefits of jamooing! Enjamu!
