6 Venues Around KL & Penang That Serve Charcoal-Infused Cocktails

Millennials are now moving on from rainbow foods en masse, and filling their feeds with photos of charcoal. It is the direct opposite of all things magical and cutesy, and it looks tres chic on social media. bamboo charcoal

Although charcoal-based food isn’t exactly new, the ingredient has recently gained popularity as many believe that it could help to cleanse toxins, beat bloating and even cure a hangover. But.. is it worthy of all the hype?

Activated charcoal vs. Bamboo charcoal

Charcoal is really just burnt organic matter. It becomes activated when it’s exposed to certain gases at high temperatures during a special process, which helps the charcoal bind with anything it comes in contact with.

But when you eat activated charcoal, it can also bind with all of the stuff that your body needs — like vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients — which obviously isn’t great. Ironically, it doesn’t bind well with alcohol. So you might have to look for other ways to cure your hangover.

Meanwhile, bamboo charcoal is created by boiling it in distilled water, and then goes through a process that converts it into carbon. It has the same ability to absorb chemicals and substances from the air and water, but it doesn’t quite possess the holding capacity as activated charcoal, which makes it relatively safe to be consumed.

P/S: Did you know that bamboo charcoal can be used in cocktails to create a tastier and smoother texture? Check out these bars around KL and Penang if you’d like to get your hands on the latest bamboo charcoal craze.
