roses.
(you can buy Rose Elixir Syrup from any Indian store)

Lassi
Indulge in a creamy, sweet treat that doubles as a dessert drink! Lassi is the epitome of
refreshment with its smooth texture and sweet flavours. As an all-time favourite Ayurvedic
drink of mine, I love having it alongside my meals, savouring it’s taste and cooling effect.
Ingredients:
• 1 cup yogurt (greek or coconut)
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp rosewater (optional)
• 1/4 tsp cardamom powder
• 2 cups cold water
Instructions:
• Whisk yogurt until smooth.

refreshment!
Chaas (Buttermilk)
Cooling buttermilk, infused with cumin and Himalayan salt, aids digestion by promoting
beneficial gut bacteria. Our doctors recommend it to balance or reduce pitta dosha in the
gastrointestinal tract, soothing inflammation and acidity. Its tangy-savoury balance assists in
breaking down food, easing absorption of nutrients, providing relief from indigestion.
Ingredients:
• 1/4 cup yogurt (greek or coconut)
• 1 tsp cumin powder
• 1/2 tsp himalayan salt
• 3/4 cup cold water
• Fresh coriander or mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions:

smooth.

• Garnish with fresh coriander or mint leaves for an extra burst of freshness.
• Sip, savour, and let the cooling properties of chaas wash over you!
With these irresistible drinks in hand, you’re all set to conquer the summer heat in style.
Cheers to sunny days and refreshing sips!
