Gur Ka Sharbat: A Perfect Summer Drink

Jaggery has always been known as the best substitute to the refined sugar, offering countless health benefits. The Chilled Gur Ka Sharbat is one the best drinks, which one can enjoy anytime, without much worrying about the repercussions.

This one is quick drink, all you have to do is, mix water and gur, wait until the gur completely dissolves and it develops a light brownish hue, but you can adjust it based on as to how sweet you would like to drink. You can also add a dash of lemon juice, this would make the drink bit tangy and it is done.

If you are serving lesser number of people you can do it, but if you have serve for larger number and also faster, in that case, you can crush the jaggery to powder and mix them in water, this will help to dissolve faster/.
