這是泰國媽媽在炎熱夏天經常煮給我和弟弟喝的消暑飲料。傳統做法會先把香茅拍鬆,再與斑蘭葉一起慢慢熬煮,讓香氣自然釋放。

不過性格帶點港女作風的泰媽媽,最愛用快捷方法。她會先把香茅和斑蘭葉放進攪拌機打成粗茸,再拿去煮。這樣不但節省時間,香味也更容易釋放出來。最後隔渣,加入冰糖及少許鹽調味,放涼後飲用,清香解暑。
直到今天,每次聞到斑蘭和香茅的香氣,我都會想起泰國炎夏的午後,以及媽媽在廚房裡準備這壺飲料的身影。
點選靚香茅? How to pick fresh lemongrass?
This refreshing Pandan & Lemongrass Drink was one of the summer drinks my Thai mum often made for me and my brother. In Thailand, the traditional method is to bruise fresh lemongrass and simmer it together with pandan leaves to release their fragrance slowly.
However, my Thai mum — who has the efficiency of a true Hong Kong lady — preferred a shortcut. Instead of bruising the herbs by hand, she would blend the lemongrass and pandan leaves into a coarse paste before simmering them. The flavour extracted much faster and was often even more intense. After straining, she would sweeten the drink with rock sugar and finish it with a small pinch of salt.
Served chilled, it was our family's favourite herbal drink on hot summer days.
