This summer drink made with sattu is ideal for summer.
The hot and muggy season of summer is here, and it’s important to increase our intake of fluids to stay hydrated. The current generation veers towards quick-fixes and is hooked on to aerated drinks and canned juices to quench their thirst. These highly processed, preservative-rich drinks rest our thirst only temporarily, without providing any health benefits, whatsoever. A better thing to do would be to stick to your roots and make delicious, refreshing drinks at home, with age-old potent ingredients. Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty, who has also made a mark for herself as a prolific home chef, dishes out recipe of sattu drink, which is healthy, easy to make, and of course, yummy.
