Description

Enjoy a refreshing glass of homemade Tamarind Juice, bursting with sweet and tangy flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 oz tamarind pulp
  • 2 cups warm water
  • 1 oz ginger
  • 4.5 oz granulated sugar
  • 1.52 tablespoons tamarind concentrate
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 3/4 cup ice
  • 2 teaspoons roasted unsalted peanuts
  • 2 teaspoons toasted coconut flakes

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, add the tamarind pulp and a cup of warm water. Use your fingers to loosen and squeeze the pulp.
  2. Place a mesh strainer over a saucepan and push the tamarind mixture through it to separate seeds and fibers.
  3. If any seeds or fibers remain, return them with another cup of water, squeeze again and strain.
  4. Place the saucepan over medium heat, add sugar and smashed ginger. Once it starts to boil, lower the heat and skim off foam.
  5. Cover the saucepan with a lid slightly askew and simmer for 30-35 minutes.
  6. Transfer the tamarind concentrate to a container once done, or refrigerate it for later use.
  7. Add 1½ – 2 tablespoons of the concentrate to a glass. Mix in 1/3 cup of water, stir well, add ice, and top with peanuts and coconut.

Notes

  • Adjust sugar to your preference for sweetness.
  • Use toasted coconut flakes for added texture if desired.
