Jaljeera magic!

Most often in the summer, we tend to mistake thirst for hunger and then wonder why we still do not feel satisfied.

At times like this, just grab a glass of water or a healthy drink and you will realise you did not need to eat. Your body was dehydrated and all you needed was to hydrate it again.

If having just water is not interesting enough, you could try the most common Indian summer drink — jaljeera. It’s a healthy alternative to harmful aerated drinks.
