It is said that long ago there was an Admiral who rampaged through a Kuwini/Kweni mango garden (Mangifera × odorata Griffith) --- a kind of mango fruit that has a soft and fragrant flesh. He raged because his wife was taken away by the garden owner. To vent his anger, the Admiral was throwing his sword in all directions. As a result, tons of kuwini fell to the ground and broke.

Residents, who were then afraid of seeing the anger of the Admiral, did not dare to approach. After his fit of anger ended, the Admiral went home. After he left, the residents flocked to collect all the kuwini fallen to the ground. At first, they got confused what to do with all kuwini that have been collected. Finally, a woman started mixing pieces of the kuwini fruit with coconut milk and sugar. After that, the drinks were distributed to residents. The people liked the taste of the drink and it immediately spread to all corners. To commemorate the history of its origins, the drink was named "ADMIRAL'S RAMPAGE = LAKSAMANA MENGAMUK".

Though the name sounds a little sinister for people who hear it for the first time, but this mango drink is so refreshing with its coconut milk sauce. This drink is originally from Pekanbaru city, province of Riau. Now, Admiral's Rampage is becoming a typical drink that's served for thirst in hot weather, relaxing while watching TV with family, breaking the fast in Ramadan, dessert for meetings, or the other big day celebrations.
Admiral's Rampage can be found in Malay Restaurants, or in Pekanbaru Culinary Snacks that use cars to go around. This icy drink has a distinctive taste tempting the throat with the smell of fresh Kweni fruit, young coconut shavings, basil seeds and a splash of syrup.
