A. Tongkat Ali (Ali's walking stick)
Okok... I know I sound silly.
Tongkat Ali extract has been touted for years as a natural testosterone boosting herbal supplement. *Wink wink* However, it is not the trunk of the tree (which really looks like a long straight pole!) that is used - it's the roots.
Anyway, the reason this plant is making an appearance here today has something to do with the fact that I'm a coffee drinker. Whenever I go overseas (Eg. Permas Jaya tackle shops), I tend to look around for unique food and drink not available in Singapore. Thus, I would always cart home a couple of special brands of instant coffee.
The above are just 2 examples of well known brands of instant coffee manufactures, but with 'flavours' not found in Singapore. In addition to the 3 (coffee/creamer/sugar), you see ginseng, Tongkat Ali and even Misai Kucing (Cat's Whiskers) added.
These coffee do smell and taste different from the usual ones, but I have no idea if it is due to the herbs or other flavourings have actually been added?
No matter what, I don't feel any difference even after drinking these everyday. Maybe it's different for the guys? Hehehe...
Let me know yah? ;p
