Minty Tamarind Cooler | mint and tamarind drink

The taste of this minty tamarind cooler will remind you of the paani puri ka teekha meetha paani. Enjoy this drink on a hot day to beat the heat.

A tangy, sweet and refreshing drink prepared from tamarind and mint leaves. You will love the splash of flavours when you take the first sip – tanginess of tamarind, sweetness of jaggery and the zesty flavour of mint leaves. We have added chaat masala powder just to balance the sweetness of jaggery plus to add a more tangy effect to our drink. If you want, you may also skip adding chaat masala and add lemon juice instead. We have not added many spices and kept this simple.

Mint or pudina is an herb that we should consume on a daily basis by including it in our daily meals because of its various healthy benefits. You can even store and preserve mint leaves by making mint powder. Making mint powder is a simple and easy way to preserve mint leaves. Have a look at our detailed instructions on How to make Dry Mint Powder (Pudina Powder) – Using Microwave & Convection
