I got thirsty after touring The Ruins. As soon as I spotted the juice stand, I felt like Woody Woodpecker running in the desert looking, not for trees, but for a lemonade stand.
Every time I see sugar cane juice I instantly think of my father. He loved this and every time we were in Ongpin, he never failed to buy a cup of freshly pressed tubo (sugarcane). He had diabetes years after so I was a little scared to indulge in this addictive juice.
Before I drank it, I read muna the health benefits. I asked the sales lady where they got this information about the health benefits of drinking sugar cane. Ni-research daw.
Dimple and I bought a cup each. She got the one with kalamansi for five pesos extra. I got the plain one.
With plenty of ice, ahhhhh it was sooooo refreshing and delicious.
