Hope all of you are safe at home & keeping healthy in this Covid19 !! Staying Healthy & keeping the immune system strong is the only weapon we have against this virus !!I usually make Kokum Coconut Cooler / Kokum Solkadhi recipe during summer to beat the extreme heat & this is also a great way to hydrate yourself. When I posted the picture of this drink on my Instagram, I got a lot of people asking me for the Recipe. So I am just quickly penning down this recipe. Kokum is one of the most underrated Indian Superfood but is full of Nutrition & Medicinal properties Widely used in most Indian states, Kokum is very easily available but the one used in this recipe are the dry kokum & not the fresh fruit. Usually available at the local grocery store, ask them for the Goa Soft Kokum & not the hard dry ones which are known as the Lonavla Kokum. Kokum Solkadhi recipe also uses fresh Coconut milk which is also highly beneficial in summer.
