Red Rice Wine | 红糟酒

Red Rice Wine

The go-to confinement rice wine for Singapore families — handcrafted in small batches, with no preservatives, salt, or sugar added.

This red rice wine (红糟酒) is the essential ingredient for authentic 红糟鸡 (hong zao chicken soup) - a beloved traditional dish for confinement, celebrations, and family gatherings. Used by generations of Singaporean families, this wine brings rich, earthy depth to soups, stews, and braises.

Known for its cholesterol-lowering properties in Traditional Chinese Medicine, red rice wine is naturally rich in probiotics that support gut health and digestion. For postpartum care, confinement nannies recommend pairing this with our ginger rice wine for optimal recovery.

Alcohol: 7% v/v, for culinary purposes. No preservatives, sugars, or additives added.
