Abstract
Indonesian people should be proud of its great natural biodiversity with precious ancestral
heritages, such as Indonesian traditional medicine or Jamu. It has been intended to diversify
the product of jamu that are affordable and healthy. Recently, it has been known that some
luxury hotels in Indonesia creates jamu as a welcome drink, which is not only fresh but also
healthful, to attract foreign customers. Empowering the community to be able making jamu
syrups is importantly required for attracting many tourists to visit Indonesia. In this program,
about 10 and 11 residents in the neighbourhood (RT) of 25 and 59, respectively, in Kebon
Agung village, Sukodono district, Sidoarjo Regency were involved. They were trained for
making jamu syrup made from lemongrass and mangosteen’s peel using health manufacturing
process of traditional medicine i.e., without any chemical preserving, coloring, and taste
masking agents, as well as hygienic packaging methods that can be long lasting, aesthetic
appearing, and worth selling. The program consisted of training, mentoring, and lecturing to
explain the making process of lemongrass and mangosteen peel syrups. The program was
conducted until all participants were able to produce their own products well. The first
production target was about each 200 bottles of lemongrass and mangosteen peel syrup could
be sold. Bottle packaging, packaging equipment, and other supporting equipment will be
delivered entirely as initial capital of POSDAYA. Hopefully, after the program is completed,
the sustainability of this effort can be continued under the guidance of Universitas Airlangga.
