Learn to Make Jamu in Seminyak – Experience Indonesia’s Timeless Herbal Tradition

Bali is a destination full of unforgettable experiences, but some of the most rewarding moments come from learning something new. If you’re looking to explore the island beyond its beaches and cafés, why not learn to make jamu in Seminyak?

At Menjamu, we invite you to discover one of Indonesia’s oldest cultural traditions through a fun, hands-on workshop. Guided by local instructors, you’ll learn how fresh herbs and spices are transformed into jamu—a traditional Indonesian herbal drink that has been enjoyed for centuries.

Whether you’re interested in local culture, natural wellness, or authentic culinary experiences, this class offers a memorable way to connect with the heart of Indonesia.

Discover the Story Behind Jamu

Jamu has been part of Indonesian daily life for generations. Long before wellness trends became popular around the world, Indonesians were preparing herbal drinks using ingredients found in nature to refresh the body and celebrate traditional knowledge.

Recipes have been passed down through families, with each region adding its own unique touch. While every blend is different, they all share the same philosophy—using simple, natural ingredients to create drinks that are both flavorful and meaningful.

During this workshop, you’ll learn to prepare two of Indonesia’s most iconic jamu recipes: Beras Kencur and Kunyit Asem. Beras Kencur is known for its naturally sweet, earthy taste made from rice, kencur, ginger, and palm sugar, while Kunyit Asem combines fresh turmeric and tamarind to create a refreshing herbal drink enjoyed throughout Indonesia.

When you join Menjamu, you’ll discover that every ingredient has a story, and every recipe reflects Indonesia’s rich cultural heritage.

Learn by Creating Your Own Herbal Drink

The best way to understand a tradition is to experience it firsthand.

• Make two classic herbal drinks: Beras Kencur and Kunyit Asem.

Explore Indonesia Through Natural Ingredients

You’ll work with fresh turmeric, kencur (aromatic ginger), ginger, tamarind, pandan leaves, palm sugar, rice, and other natural ingredients while learning how each one contributes its own aroma, flavor, and character to Beras Kencur and Kunyit Asem.

By the end of the class, you’ll have a greater appreciation for the diversity of Indonesia’s natural ingredients and the traditions that continue to keep them alive.
