Go Indian this Summer – DRINKS!
Summer is here, just like every other year without fail. If Sun doesn’t fail in making us realize how HOT it can be then why should we back out from giving him a good peek at how cool we can be during it all with our cool attitude and the drinks that help us get it COOL!
1. Coconut Water – The king of summer-proof drinks that is well known in the Southern part of the country but has expanded its wings all over now. The drink doesn’t only keep you cool under the Sun but also gives your body some much needed nutrients. Bonus is that a drink of coconut water everyday can lead you to excellent weight loss in the long run.
2. Nimbu Pani – The most common of summer-proof drinks. You can get them on every roadside stall during summers and drinking the ultimate mix of some water, lemon juice, black salt and some secret masala, gives your body the much needed energy it needed.
3. Jal Jeera – The mummy favorite summer-proof drink. That is the one thing every kid remembers from their school days – mom with a cool glass of jal jeera waiting for us to return from school, to re-energize us and get the stress off.
4. Fruit Shakes – The favorites were usually mango and strawberry shake. The summer-proof drinks that tasted best when prepared in the house. They are the ultimate stress busters and also lead you right to sleep when taken right after dinner.
5. Chaas – The share & care summer-proof drink also known as “Buttermilk”. The only option you have for an energizing drink after you’ve had a Sun-stroke. The right balance of sweet & savory, with the mix of all natural coolants i.e. curd, water, mint leaves, etc…
6. Aam-Panna – The second favorite mango drink. Made from raw mangoes, it is the best savory summer-proof drink. Best for the people NOT with a sweet-tooth.
7. Kokum Sherbet – The famous Maharashtrian drink. Made from the commonly found summer fruit of Kokum, considered a natural coolant. It is most famous in the regions of Maharashtra & Goa.
8. Lassi – The pride of Punjab. One of the common summer-proof drinks. Mostly taken along with the usual meals of the day. Considered a natural coolant because of all the ingredients used and also tends to send you right to sleep if taken with meals.
9. Thandai – The exotic summer-proof drink. Exotic, because of all the dry fruits used in its making and summer-proof because of all the other ingredients used like, curd and cold milk and stuff. You’ll generally get it at home only when there are some special guests around.
10. Rose Milk – The Indian rooh-afza. To tell you the truth, rose milk was in existence way before rooh-afza’s claim to fame. Rose milk is the most common but least used all natural summer-proof drink from the ancient castles of the east, drink of the royalty. It has a mix of milk and rose petals that make it so delicious and cooling.
