This is a very popular drink in East Africa. It's like the ones you can buy at the grocery store but you can add your own variations to it with lime juice, honey, cinnamon, or vanilla.

I didn't have any tamarind paste on hand, so I used tamarind concentrate instead. It worked out just fine.

The tamarind juice was a bit too sour for my taste. I added a little bit of honey to sweeten it up, and it was perfect.

I've tried many tamarind juice recipes, but this one is by far the best. The balance of sweet, sour, and salty is perfect.

This tamarind juice recipe was a hit at my last dinner party! Everyone loved the tart and tangy flavor. It was the perfect drink to cool down on a hot summer day.
