This beloved beverage is not only a treat for your taste buds but also packed with digestive benefits, making it a staple in many Indian households. Plus, it’s far superior to the ready-to-mix versions that often contain artificial ingredients. In a mixer, blend the coriander leaves, pudina leaves, lemon juice, ginger, roasted cumin seed powder, and rock salt. Once everything is well blended, strain the mixture and add some crushed ice to make it extra refreshing. Finally, garnish with some namkeen boondi. These little crunchy balls not only add texture but also enhance the overall flavour of the drink.
