Sukku Malli Kappi with Karupatti / Dry Ginger coffee with Palm Jaggery

                           Yep, it was terribly hot few days back, but now the climate is very very pleasing. It is raining here in some parts of Tamil Nadu. We can see(in news) many waterfalls are flooded because of this rain. And the rain is because of a cyclone. Nature is always enchanting and great, if it didn't rain, the summer would have been horrible. Mother nature gives us what we need in right time. So, please start saving nature from plastics at least.

                         Because of the sudden change in climate, we get easily infected by cold. The magic drink made with dry ginger(sukku) , pepper (milagu), coriander seeds(malli) and tulsi, will be a great heal for the cold and flu and will reduce the severity also. The magic drink is sukku malli kappi made with karupatti / dry ginger coffee made with palm jaggery.
