This is one of mother's concoction. Ever since retirement, momsy has embarked on a herbal adventure. Be it bath, cures, cosmetic or diet. The pantry is full of all sort of dried herbs, spices and stuff that are complete alien to me. I remember she sent me an SMS list of medicinal herbs while i was in Penang a few months ago, the shopkeeper couldn't understand a word i was saying. Anyway...
I peeked into her latest pot of concoction on the stove yesterday and discovered this.

My late grandma used to make this drink to cool off the body. Momsy likes to improvise recipes and has added slivers of aloe vera, one of the many plants and herbs she grows in her backyard. The frog-eggy look alike thingy is actually biji selasih (basil seeds). All boiled in brown sugar syrup. Good stuff.
