Explore the traditional wellness benefits of Kunu Aya (Tigernut milk), rich in prebiotic fiber, magnesium, and natural sweetness.
Tigernut milk, known locally in West Africa as Kunu Aya, is one of nature’s most complete plant-based beverages. Despite its name, tigernuts are not actually nuts—they are small nutrient-dense tubers packed with digestive fiber, healthy monounsaturated fats, and essential minerals like potassium, magnesium, and iron.
For centuries, traditional communities have consumed tigernuts for sustained energy, gut health, and vital nourishment. At Fruta Jugo, we slow-soak authentic local tigernuts, blend them with dried dates for subtle natural sweetness, and spice the mix with warm cloves and ginger.
Health Advantages of Fruta Jugo Tigernut Milk:
- 100% Lactose-Free & Vegan: A creamier, allergen-friendly alternative to dairy milk.
- Prebiotic Fiber: Feeds beneficial probiotic gut bacteria, improving digestion and reducing bloating.
- Heart-Healthy Fats: Rich in oleic acid, which helps regulate cholesterol levels.
Whether enjoyed as a refreshing afternoon drink or paired with breakfast, our Tigernut Milk offers pure, traditional comfort in every bottle.
