Ayurvedic Buttermilk (Majjiga)

IMG_2196.JPGI drink a glass of this every night. These are the ingredients:

1 Quart low-fat buttermilk

1 Quart drinking water

4 types of leaves – coriander, parsley, mint and curry leaves

Slice of ginger cut up in small pieces

A small cut up chilli

A pinch of salt

A small spoonful of ground Turmeric

An inch of Cinnamon stick

A few Whole cardomon pods

A few Whole Cloves

A pinch of Cumin seeds

A few Whole Black Peppercorn (helps the Turmeric absorb in the body)

A pinch of Saffron

Squeeze some fresh lime juice

Mix well in a container that has a strainer in its spout. Keep in the fridge.
