Amazake is a sweet rice porrige that is made by converting the starches of rice into sugars. Our Amazake is a pure food product made from organic brown rice using traditional manufacturing processes with no sugar or sweetener added. Amazake is best enjoyed by boiling it with twice as much water, cooling it for 2-3 hours, heating it again and adding a small amount of ground ginger. The history of Amazake goes back to the 4th century and although it is often associated with winter and can be enjoyed as a hot beverage during this time, it is a sweet nutritious drink which is best enjoyed during the heat of summer. It is a great source of rich vitamins, essential amino acids and glucose and aids the digestive system by accelerating appetite.
