Have you ever heard of amazake⁉️🍶
It’s simply a sweet Japanese drink made from fermented rice.
🔹There are two types of amazake, depending on how it’s made:
1.Sake-Kasu amazake:
Contains trace amounts of alcohol.
2.Koji amazake:
Contains no alcohol.
🌱 The benefits of amazake:
🔸it contains probiotics, bacteria and yeast that may support gut health.
🔸 it contains several B vitamins, including Vitamin B2 (which is good for your skin, hair, and nails).
🔸 it contains amino acids that have been studied for their potential benefits for the skin health.
🔸 it contains glucose, which provides the body with energy.
🔸 Koji amazake is also traditionally enjoyed as a summer drink in Japan.
I have three questions 💡
- Have you ever tried amazake?
- Does it taste good?
- Do you have a similar sweet rice drink in your country?
