Jamu Juice is a traditional Indonesian tonic that has been used for centuries to support health and vitality. This nourishing blend combines fresh turmeric and ginger for their powerful anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits, with tamarind paste to aid detoxification and support liver health. A squeeze of lemon adds a hit of vitamin C to boost immunity, while a pinch of black pepper helps your body absorb the turmeric’s active compound, curcumin, more effectively. A touch of honey balances the earthy spices with natural sweetness and soothing antimicrobial properties. Enjoy this golden elixir chilled for a refreshing, daily dose of natural wellness.
