Mango drink



Summer is the only season when mangoes both raw and ripe are available in plenty. Hence, it is the best time to make use of this fruit to the maximum.
Aam panna is one such drink, which is made using cooked raw mangoes. It is not only refreshing and cooling to the body during summer, but also tastes great. Here, I have presented a mango drink similar to aam panna using uncooked raw mango. 

        
                         raw mango

Ingredients:
Raw mangoes -2
Turmeric powder -1/2tsp
Cumin powder -1/2tsp
Salt -1/2tsp
Sugar to taste

Method:
Wash and grate the mango along with the skin. Rub turmeric powder and salt to it. Set it aside for 5 minutes. The mango would have released lot of water by then. Squeeze the mango and strain the liquid. To this liquid add sugar and cold water. Garnish with cumin powder.

Note:
The residue after squeezing the mango can be used to make pickles or sun-dried to make amchur/mango powder.
