It is like squash that can be easily made at home. Mangoes used to prepare this drink must be raw and not ripened ones, they should be sour. Since there is a lot of sugar used here, this drink can be preserved for a weeks’ time.
I make this using water normally but when there are some guests coming at home, I make them using sprinkling water, it tastes heavenly with that. It is actually a heat-resistant drink that refreshes you from within. Some basic spices are added to it that gives it a spicy tangy taste. One of the main ingredients in this drink is fresh mint leaves which just makes this drink awesome.
Let’s see how we make it.
