Healthy drink and also best for summer to cool your body.
Banana(Plantain) Stem - Vaazha Thandu, Arati Davva, Bale dhindu, Kele ki tana
Butter Milk- Mor, Majjiga, Majjige, chaas
Banana stem is very rich in fiber and also helps in reducing weight .It can be eaten raw or cooked. It also helps to prevent and treat kidney stones . Also it completely cools the body and is highly recommended in tropical countries.
The combination of these two super coolers definitely cools our body completely and best to take in summer to beat the heat and cool.
Banana stem juice combined with buttermilk and when had in empty stomach helps in weight reduction.
Banana Stem - 1 cup (chopped roughly)
Yogurt/Curd/Dahi/Thayir/Perugu/Mosaru - 1/2 cup
Water - 1/2 cup
Ginger - 1/2 inch piece
Green chillie - 1 small or half
Cumin Seeds/Jeera - 10 by count
Salt - 1 - 2 pinch
Blend/Grind all ingredients in a mixer and strain with a muslin cloth or strainer. Drink fresh or serve chill.
Note instead of grinding cumin seeds can add few pinch of roasted cumin powder.
