📜 History

Bajigur is a traditional warm beverage from West Java, Indonesia, particularly associated with Sundanese culture. Made from palm sugar and coconut milk, this comforting drink has been enjoyed by Javanese communities for generations, especially during cool mountain evenings. Street vendors called "tukang bajigur" have long been a familiar sight in Sundanese villages, carrying their wares in traditional containers. The drink represents the rich culinary heritage of Indonesian palm sugar traditions.
