The extension method is carried out to introduce to the public about various preparations with the basic ingredients of ginger. Apart from ginger, it turns out that ginger can be made for Andrek drinks, Ronde, sekoteng and many more. Questionnaire results from 21 respondents showed that the people of Teratai Village were in an effort to overcome the Covid-19 pandemic by always maintaining their health. A business that has been passed down from generation to generation and is still being carried out by making ginger based drinks. However, due to the limitations of knowledge and information, the public only knows ginger, which is a ginger-based product.
