February 26, 2019, My kids and I love drinking turmeric tamarind. Whenever we're out exploring food and see this drink option, we choose it without hesitation. Making it at home can feel tedious if you have to grind or grate the turmeric. It stains your hands and nails yellow (though you could use a blender). Finally, I used Riska Dwi's recipe, which is practical and just involves mixing without the hassle of grating turmeric and without turmeric stains on your hands or utensils. Source: Riska Dwi A.
