Bandrek is a traditional beverage of the Sundanese, the people who live in West Java, Indonesia. The Sundanese people who live in the highland's cool climate love to consume bandrek to warm themselves at night and during cold weather. This beverage is usually made of ginger and other ingredients such as cinnamon, star anise, cloves, coriander seeds, cardamom pods, lemongrass, Indonesian palm sugar, and chillies. Milk can be added or not, depending on one’s taste. It is believed that bandrek has a healing effect on minor problems, such as sore throat.
