Beat the heat and improve digestion with a batch of cold, refreshing jaljira! Also called jaljeera or jal-jeera, this Indian beverage is essentially a cold drink of lemonade flavoured with a pre-made spice mix called jaljira powder, essentially a spiced-up lemonade. Drinking jaljeera is believed to help the body combat extreme heat and works especially well for hydrating during the summers. Cumin and dry ginger are traditionally added to aid digestion, and mint acts as a cooling agent. This spice mix is also great sprinkled on top of a chopped fruit salad, pairing especially well with watermelon, papaya and pineapple.
