The Sun is shining harder. Summers are here again! Summer is upon us once again, and we must prepare to battle the heat. As the heat rises outside, body heat levels also go for a toss. It’s that time of year when everyone wants to avoid the heat, a hot meal, or a cup of tea at all costs and instead opt for refreshingly cooler foods and drinks! Also, remember that the extreme heat during this season causes dehydration, so eat foods that provide adequate water for the body to stay hydrated and cool! 

Indian cuisine offers a range of perfect summertime meals. Quite a few of these are light, flavorful, and easy to prepare in many ways. Here are some suggestions that will help you beat the heat this summer.

Soft Beverages for summer

Oh, that drink! In summer, with long days and high temperatures, there’s really nothing better way to cool down the heat than by having a glass of delicious, refreshing summer beverages like Lassi. 

This refreshing summer drink is prepared with many flavors such as mango, salt, or sweet blended with cumin, jeera, and curd. This drink not only keeps you refreshed and relaxed but also energized through the chilling summer.

Desserts

There’s no other delicious way to keep cool with the rising temperature than eating Indian desserts like Saffron Kheer, Paan Kulfi, or Rasmalai. Yes, everyone wants a break and happiness too. So imagine spooning into a Saffron Kheer post a lunch meal. The unbelievable pleasure of having dessert in summer.

Bhel

Bhel is a popular street food snack that originated in Mumbai, India. It’s a mix of puffed rice, peanuts, savory chickpeas, and onions mixed with tangy tamarind chutney. 

It’s also very healthy for you! Bhel contains vitamins A, C, and E, which help keep your skin healthy and ensure you don’t get sick during the summer months.

This collection of street foods from India is delicious, vibrant, and bursting with flavor.
