10ml Homemade Turmeric Shrub

Instructions

- To achieve the perfect refreshing taste, it is important that you use freshly pressed pineapple juice which compliments the flavour and character of the tequila blanco.
- Then to add sweetness to the cocktail, Tamboks uses a Palawan local honey, which you can substitute with whatever honey you have on hand.
- To add an added health benefit and kick to the drink, Tamboks uses their homemade Turmeric Shrub. As a substitute you can add a mixture of lemon or lime juice and turmeric.
- Lastly do not forget to add a touch of ground black pepper.
