Turmeric & Bentong Ginger Jujube Tea Paste

It’s getting spicy up in here! Why pit the benefits of turmeric and ginger against each other when you can have both in ONE sweet and spicy drink? Enjoy the unique blend of flavors when you take a sip of our Turmeric & Bentong Ginger Jujube Tea. Made from freshly grated Bentong ginger and turmeric with jujubes (red dates), dried longan pulp, goji berries, and jaggery to mellow it out, it’s a taste that you won’t soon forget. But why do we use Bentong ginger? Compared to normal ginger, Bentong ginger is spicier and darker in color, a testament to its higher nutritional value. As it only grows in unpolluted soil, requires cooler temperatures and specific growing conditions, it’s highly prized and often more costly than regular ginger. Not only does it contribute to the drink taste-wise but a cup of this is equivalent of giving your body an immune-boosting shot! Check out the health benefits below and add to cart now.
