With temperatures scorching high above the average in most parts of the world, keeping cool should be the top priority. It is thus essential to maintain optimal hydration levels of the body at all times.
Nothing could be better to beat the summer heat than a well-crafted drink that is not only cooling but is armed with digestion enhancing properties.
The drink recipe that I am about to share with you today is of jal zeera. Jal zeera or jaljeera is an Indian summer drink made with tamarind as the main ingredient, along with other spices and herbs. This drink improves appetite, cools you down and fires up the digestive process. A perfectly tantalizing drink to quench your thirst with gusto.
The digestive and cooling properties of jal zeera are attributed to the herbs and spices used in it. Tamarind the main ingredient of jal zeera is a powerful antioxidant and helps maintain the electrolyte balance of the body, owing to the presence of copper, potassium, calcium and magnesium.
Mint is also used in the recipe and it has digestive properties of its own. The cumin used in the drink is loaded with minerals and has carminative properties.
