Health drink - 1

Petu (my hubby), had a bad throat today and he wanted to feel better. I thought of this drink, which I had prepared last week and he had loved it. It also has great effect on sore throats. It's very easy to prepare and you can enjoy it on a cold day too ! This is the replacement for hot coffee/tea on a rainy day :P

Ingredients (for 2 glasses):

  • coriander - 5-6 sprigs
  • mint - 2-3 sprigs
  • ginger
  • jeera
  • turmeric - 1 tsp
  • salt and pepper - to taste
Boil all the above, except salt and pepper, in water. Boil it for 5-8 mins and take it off heat. Now add salt and pepper. Done!!

Note: Never add pepper to boiling water. Same goes while preparing soups too. Take them off heat and then add pepper. Else, it gives a bitter taste.

Let me know how it was. 

Bon appetite.
xoxo.

  1. If we add Raw Mango to this, it is believed to serve as a great antacid :) It tastes pretty yum too :)
