She added a dash of ginger for an additional boost in the recipe, and also used fresh, raw haldi instead of the dry powdered one. A few kernels of peppercorn and a tiny portion of Apple Cider vinegar was added to the mix which was then whirred in the blender. The thick, yellow preparation was then strained into a glass with the help of a sieve and then consumed raw as an immunity ‘shot’ as Malaika Arora called it.
