Summer is here in India, so today I am sharing a refreshing summer drink – Paan Gulkand Drink recipe, also known as Paan Shots to keep the body cool during hot summer days. A simple and instant method requires very few ingredients – Milk, Rose Petal jam (Gulkand), Fennel Seeds and Betel Leaves. Gulkand is an excellent cooling ingredient also recommended in Ayurvedic medicines. I often make this drink at home during summer, and everyone including kids love it. Follow this step-by-step recipe to make Paan Gulkand Drink at home.
