Kunnu, a non-alcoholic beverage produced from tigernuts and spices (ginger, cloves, red and black pepper) the method of preparation of the drink is described below.

Tigernut milk is also known as “Kunnu” in the Northern part of Nigeria, “Offio” by Yorubas and referred to as “horchata de chufa” in Spain.

Unlike milk made from almonds or other nuts, tiger nut milk is rich in unsaturated fat, as well as minerals and vitamins C and E.
Tigernuts are a traditional food of Africa and Spain. The milk is naturally sweet, creamy with a rich and nutty flavour.

Unlike milk made from almonds or other nuts, tiger nut milk is rich in unsaturated fat, as well as minerals and vitamins C and E.

Tigernut milk or kunnu aya can be made simply by soaking the tubers in water, blending and straining; however, the addition of spices like cardamom and cinnamon, dates, alligator pepper as well as a sweetener is lovely.

Why Tigernuts Are Good for You

Kunnu are a rich source of nourishment, and remain a significant source of food for both the poor and the wealthy throughout northwest Africa. They’re rich in minerals like calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium and phosphorus, as well as vitamins C and E. 

They’re a good source of oleic acid (a monounsaturated fat also found in olive oil, avocado and pork fat), and which is associated with increased HDL (good) cholesterol levels.

Tigernuts, also a member of the nutsedge family, are also traditionally used in folk medicine along with ginger and mints to treat upset stomachs, digestive issues and irritable bowels.

They are also a good source of prebiotics (that is food for the good beneficial bacteria in your gut!) like inulin and resistant starch.
