Bandrek
- Media: Bandrek
Bandrek is a traditional hot, sweet and spicy beverage native to Sundanese of West Java, Indonesia.[1] The Sundanese people who live in the cool, highlands consume bandrek to warm themselves at night and during cold weather.
This hot beverage is made of a mixture of ginger water, palm sugar and cinnamon.[1] Other ingredients such as, star anise, cloves, coriander seeds, cardamom pods, lemongrass, and a small amount of black pepper are sometimes added.[2] Milk can also be added to the mix, depending on one's taste. Sweetened condensed milk or coconut milk is commonly used for this purpose.
It is believed that bandrek has a healing effect on minor health problems, such as sore throat.[citation needed]
Variations
Sometimes pieces of young coconut flesh are added as well. The latest variant includes pieces of durian placed into the bandrek.[2]
