That old nimbu pani will never be underestimated by us! It’s as simple as deseeding the lemon and adding the lemon juice to cold water. Stir in some ice cubes and sugar or honey to your preference. If you want to speed up the process, grind the sugar into a fine powder and keep it on hand. If you want to up the flavor, garnish with kaala namak and mint leaves. Refrigeration, at least for a few hours, is recommended. You can count on this one to never let you down!
2) Butter milk
In Cleopatra’s beauty regimen, she was a devotee of the milk bath. There are numerous health and beauty benefits to buttermilk, one of milk’s by-products, as well. The summers are the best time to use it, and that’s just one of its many advantages. Yeast and yoghurt can be mixed together to make an Indian-style yoghurt dip. Grind with a hand blender.

Rose milk is the one thing that always brings us back to our childhoods! Adulthood has allowed us to chill our drinks.
