Instructions

  1. In a bowl, add ragi flour and water. Mix thoroughly until smooth without any lumps.
  2. Cook this ragi mixture on medium heat, stirring constantly, until it forms a smooth, thick, non-sticky paste.
  3. Once cooled, shape the ragi into small portions and soak them overnight in 1.5 litres of water.

  6. Serve this Sanjeevani-like rejuvenating drink chilled and enjoy the taste of tradition and health in every sip.
