Tamarind Water

Ingredients

• 120 g Tamarind pulp
• 900 ml Water
• 70 g Unrefined cane sugar

Method

1. Bring {water} with {tamarind_pulp} to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then reduce to low heat and let it simmer gently until the pulp comes loose, the liquid darkens, and it smells sharply sweet-and-sour.
2. Mash {tamarind_pulp} in the pan with the back of a spoon to release as much flavor as possible, then pour through a fine sieve into a bowl and press firmly so only fibers and seeds remain.
3. Stir {unrefined_cane_sugar} into the warm tamarind drink until fully dissolved and taste; the drink should be bright and refreshing, distinctly tart, and gently rounded with sweetness.
4. Let the drink cool to lukewarm, then refrigerate until fully chilled so the flavor becomes rounded and refreshing.
5. Stir the chilled drink well and pour into glasses; serve ice-cold for the clearest, most refreshing flavor.
