`Eat well, live well'
The idea introduced from China that your health is closely
connected to your daily dietary habits is still alive in Okinawa.
Certain plants available locally have traditionally been used
to cure a variety of sicknesses in Okinawa. Herbs are a typical
example. Okinawan people make 'medicinal liqueurs' by soaking
herbs in awamori and consume them in everyday life.
In fact, they are protecting themselves from various common
diseases without even realizing it.
We would like to introduce how to make a medicinal liqueur
called Nuchi-gusui, meaning 'medicine for life', which
is a secret kind of beverage that helps Okinawans to live
long and healthy lives.
