Traditional Surinamese favorites

Many Surinamese drinks have been made at home for generations.

With Dawet syrup you make the well-known Javanese-Surinamese coconut drink. Traditionally, it is served with coconut milk, ice and the characteristic cornstarch flakes, which give the drink its recognizable texture. Orgeade is loved for its fresh, creamy taste. Ginger syrup forms the base for a powerful, homemade ginger drink that is often served during holidays or family gatherings.

Herbal tea also plays an important role in Surinamese culture. Tea made from Marva, Moringa and Bos Zuurzak has been drunk for years and is a familiar part of daily life for many Surinamese people.
