About the recipe
Padengi Juice is a natural coolant made using green gram (moong), freshly grated coconut and jaggery. Due to its cooling nature, this refreshing drink is perfect for hot summers.
This simple homemade drink combines the earthy flavour of roasted green gram with the sweetness of jaggery, the richness of coconut and the aroma of cardamom. The ingredients are blended with water and strained to create a smooth, refreshing drink that tastes best when served chilled.
