Sukku Malli Kaapi/Coffee
This is one of the best herbal drink to have at home all the time,especially when its cold outside. This helps in curing cold,cough and headaches. It also improves digestion strength and improves metabolism. Always have a bottle of powder at home, do not store it more than a month. Fresh powder has good flavor so make it as a small batch and keep it in an air tight container. I hate taking medicines. I believe in nature food.
I always have lot of herbal things in my house. Headache or cold just boil 2 cups of water and add 4 tsp of this powdery our headache will be gone in few mins. I try to give it to my 4 yr old daughter too just one spoon is good for them she is good to go. Nasal congestion gets relived the minute dry ginger and pepper flavor hits it. Best herbal powder ever. Quick to make and ready in 10 mins.
