Things to know about Jaljeera Recipe

Imagine having a drink that sends your tastebuds on a roller coaster ride. The Indian Traditional Spicy Cold Drink from North India – Jaljeera, is one such lip-smacking Indian beverage. It has a refreshing and savory aftertaste that lingers.

The word Jaljeera is a combination of two words. Jal means water, and Jeera means cumin. This flavorful beverage is lemonade with a blend of cumin powder and spices. The Jaljeera originates in the Northern Parts of India at the banks of the River Ganges.

A long time back, the Jaljeera powder was ground on stone slabs and kept in clay vessels. Cumin helps with digestion, and mint has cooling properties. Hence, it was a delicious on-the-go beverage during the hot summer season.

Ready-made Jaljeera powder is widely popular across India. It contains cumin, black pepper, chili, salt, ginger, and mint. The slightly tangy flavor of Jaljeera comes from dry mango powder. In India, you can find this as an appetizer. The purpose of serving lip-smacking is to startle your tastebuds before the main course.
