I was told its especially good to drink around the time of the month to replace lost minerals. I love using it in my tea and sometimes I'll just add it to a mug of boiling water if I don't fancy it with tea. I live in Hong Kong now and it's pretty easy to buy here and it's not expensive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-62998320334149037.post-14828011954442164202012-07-19T02:57:03.388-04:002012-07-19T02:57:03.388-04:00Wow, this looks very intriguing.

It reminds me of gula melaka, a dark raw sugar from the southeast asian region where I live, though that one comes from palm sugar, not cane.
