Tukang Sari Tebu (Sugar Cane Juice man)

Sugar Cane Juice is called as Air Tebu or Sari Tebu in Indonesia. It's quite easy to find the vendors selling it on the streets or also in the big malls. I like to drink it. Cold and sweet... Ah, it's so refreshing on a hot day. Definitely, it will quince the thirst :)

This is how the vendor get the fresh sugar cane juice.


Using a press machine
The extract of sugar cane juice need to be strained


It's ready in the drink container.


Refreshing!!! *slurp*

1 small plastic bag of sugar cane juice cost Rp. 2.000
Currency: 1 USD = Rp. 8.500

    This looks like the streets of Glodok. Am I right? Hehehe. I saw a sugar cane in farmer's market today. There is no way I can press them down to extract the juice.

    It's imported from China or something.
    There is not many place to get a decent jus tebu now, whilst in glodok it's still common findings. The jus tebu in the malls tastes like river water mixed with cow's poo.
