If you want to unlock the key to keeping cool this summer, this native alternative to kombuchas, ice teas and energy drinks is a lot closer to home, than you would imagine.
2 glasses water 1 tablespoon jaggery 1 spoon fresh neem flowers 1 tablespoon chopped ginger 4-5 slices raw mango Salt to taste
Crush the jaggery into a coarse powder and add it to the water. Mix well for it to dissolve.
Separate the neem flowers from the stems and collect them in a small bowl.
Crush the pepper and ginger lightly in a mortar and pestle and add to the resting jaggery water.
Allow the water to sit as it is for 10 minutes.
Add the remaining ingredients and a tiny pinch of salt and mix well.
Serve at room temperature or lightly cooled down, without straining.
