I have been feeling a little bit drained these days, being a SAHM at the moment really is not as easy as it seems.

Cooking, cleaning, shouting, washing - became a daily task - well, regardless you are working or not. #truth

Hence, I know I need to find myself an energy booster. Not that coffee does not help (in denial mode) but I just needed an all-in-one energy bar?drink?food? to help me perform my daily duties efficiently #stillKPIdriven

I found this Jamu Awet Muda recipe on my FB, and decided to try it. Jamu, is like a Malay's remedy to help in solving health issue traditionally. It is NOT to be treated as medicine, it's more like a supplement.

Among the benefits claimed from the users:

• Rasa lebih bertenaga
• Mencuci rahim selepas period
• Membuang angin dalam badan
• Merapatkan organ dalaman wanita

Resepi Jamu Awet Muda 

3 cawan air
2 batang serai (diketuk)
3 biji kunyit hidup (ukuran dalam 2 cm, diketuk sedikit)
2 biji buah Manjakani
1 cm halia (ditumbuk sedikit)
1 sudu besar asam jawa
1/2 gula Melaka
2 helai daun pandan* (optional)

• Masukkan semua bahan di atas dalam periuk dan didihkan dengan api sederhana selama 30 minit atau sehingga air dalam periuk tinggal lebih kurang satu cawan

The ingredients.

After boiling for about 15 minutes.

The final result.

The taste?

Honestly, it tastes good - not like the chocolate taste good kind of way, more like good you-can-still-drink-this! I thought it would taste spicy due to the ginger and lemongrass but the tamarind paste somehow helped in soothing the strong ginger taste.

Lepas minum jus ni, I do feel lega. Angin dalam badan semua macam hilang (lepas sendawa,lol) and badan rasa ringan amat. yeah. marilah kita amalkan jus ini demi kesihatan dalaman kita!

DISCLAIMER : sis baru first time minum ni, sila tengok hasilnya based on muka sis, hawas tau. tapi ada orang lain yang dah try, muka dia memang awet muda lah! you can say it's genetic but i guess this helps too sebab dia yang amalkan,okayy!
