All about Jamu
Jamu is an ancient Indonesian drink which dates back over 4000 years - Jamu translates as ‘Herbal Drink’ in Indonesian and there are hundreds of versions. All vibrant and aimed to bring refreshment.
Our Jamu is all about the wonder spice turmeric, which holds an active enzyme called Curcumin. The addition of black pepper has an important role to play with turmeric making it more bioavailable.
Each of our 500ml bottle contains 3,700mg of turmeric and contains enough for a 100ml shot/serving for 5 days.
Our JAMU is a spicy infusion of organic fresh turmeric, tamarind, ginger, lemongrass, citrus, cinnamon, black pepper and Atlantic sea salt. There is a comforting aromatic flavour from the fresh turmeric, a sweet/sour tang from tamarind, a peppery and spicy hit from the pepper and ginger - subtle hints of cinnamon and lemongrass and a refreshing citrus burst from the lemons. We add a small amount of honey to bring a balance to the strong flavours but it is not at all sweet - we constantly have to tell customers that it is not a juice.
Serving suggestions
Jamu is a versatile and unique drink which can be consumed in many ways..
Keep it refrigerated and have it as a small glass (about 100ml) first thing in the morning.
A great addition to smoothies.
It is delicious hot - dilute with hot water and add a small spoon of organic coconut oil - this helps us to absorb the turmeric even better. Try it heated up with a nut milk to make fabulous warming Golden Milk!
Our JAMU is made using all natural ingredients with no preservatives added. The shelf life of our JAMU is 21 days from production.
