AJWAIN PATHA DRINK

THIS IS A HEALTHY SUMMER COOLER.  Summer is on.  We have to hydrate our body to escape from the scorching sun.  Your intake will be less and feel like having something cold always.

During summer, we must have more salads, fruits, juices and coconut water.  My mother in law will start giving children coconut water right from February till the raining season.   Cucumber, water melon has lot of water contents in it so we must conusme more of these during summer.

Coming back to the ajwain patha drink, ajwain patha is known as oma elai, karpooravalli elai, pani koorka elai which is very good for health and got medicinal values.  We make bhajia, paratha also with these leaves.  I used to put this in for making kashayam too.

Today I made thokku with these leaves and the drink also.  Let us look at the recipe now:
