Asian Pennywort Drink Recipe

Ingredients

• 5.3 oz pennywort leaves
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 6 1/4 cups water (divide 4 1/4 cups (1l) and 2 cups (500ml))
• pandan leaves (optional, see notes)
• ice cubes (as needed for a chilled drink)

Steps

1. 1

   Heat a pot on medium and mix 4 1/4 cup water with sugar and pandan leaves (if using) until the sugar dissolves to make sugar syrup. Take it off the heat.

2. 2

   Chop the pennywort leaves for easy blending, then mix them up with the remaining water in a blender.

3. 3

   Strain the blended pennywort mixture into a bowl.

4. 4

   Pour the strained juice into the sugar water, stir well, and let it cool. Enjoy it over ice or chilled from the fridge.
