Oh, this sounds absolutely lovely:
In Bali, I used to LOVE getting jamu. Jamu, as far as I know, is a drink made out of turmeric, ginger and lemon, sweetened with honey (although it can have other things in it, like limes or tamarind too!).
I have had all of these things,but never all together, and of course I haven't had the pleasure of any part of the Pacific Ocean outside of living on the west coast of the US a few times so I am always looking for new ways to experience flavors from afar.
My teens just came back with some fresh honey they helped to collect from their grandparents' hives last week, so I will have to make a trip to the Asian market this weekend to get some fresh turmeric and tamarind.
I do love lemons as well as limes, so I might have to try it both ways before I determine which one I like better. Of course then I might have to try it with key limes as well...
@riverflows for someone across the globe you sure do know how to catch my attention!

Oh wow, please share if you make it! I was just reading another post under #lotusindonesia tag which shows a recipe for how they did it too, going to try that tomorrow. It has a very specific taste that reminds me of feeling good in Bali.
Haha really? I catch your attention? you are very sweet. I feel the same about you!!!!!
