Penang’s Keat Poh drink is one of those old‑school, hyper‑local beverages that you only truly understand if you’ve spent time in Penang kopitiams. It’s refreshing, herbal, citrusy, and part of Penang’s “cooling drink” culture.
Keat Poh is a golden lime + herbal syrup used to make a cooling drink known as 桔宝凉茶. It’s brewed with Chinese herbs, then blended with limau kasturi (calamansi) to create a sweet‑tangy herbal cordial.
