Infused Drinks to Keep You Refreshed

As we enter the winter season, staying hydrated is more important than ever. The transition—from summer’s harshness to the cold breezes of the onsetting winter is difficult to adjust. However, despite this transition, the lingering heat can leave you feeling parched and drained. Infused drinks are a great way to beat the heat while enjoying unique blends of refreshing fruits, herbs, and spices. Whether you're lounging at home, on your way to work, or simply looking for a burst of flavour to break up your routine, these drinks will keep you hydrated, refreshed, and satisfied. Here's a refreshing collection brighten up your day.

Watermelon Mogu Mogu 
Watermelon Mogu Mogu, a playful drink, originating from Thailand, combines fresh watermelon juice with chewy pieces of Nata-de-coco. The chewy coconut gel adds a fun texture, making it feel like a drink and a snack in one! Picture yourself sipping this by the beach, the sweet, slightly tangy juice transporting you to tropical locales. It’s a delightful way to keep your hydration game strong.

Rose Cardamom Milk 
Rose Cardamom Milk combines the cooling effect of rose with the warmth of cardamom, creating a delightful balance, in the traditional Indian style. While milk may not come to mind when thinking of hydration, this rose-infused milk is light and cooling, perfect for hot afternoons giving you some nostalgic feels, when grandma would prepare rose milk to help sleep better.

Cucumber Basil Cooler 
If you're looking for something crisp, yet refreshing, the Cucumber Basil Cooler is the answer. Cucumbers are known for their high water content, making them perfect for hydration. Pairing them with basil—a herb celebrated for its detoxifying properties—adds an aromatic freshness to the drink. It’s the kind of drink that gives you a spa-like vibe in your own living room.

Beetroot Shikanji 
Taking the classic Indian lemonade and giving it a modern twist, Beetroot Shikanji is both energising and hydrating. Adding beetroot to your already traditional drink is sure to get you an earthy sweetness, along with a striking pink hue that makes it almost too pretty to drink! Beetroot Shikanji is for those who like their drinks with a little kick.

Strawberry Basil Crush 
The Strawberry Basil Cooler is a delightful drink for anyone looking to beat the heat with a burst of flavour. Strawberries bring a natural, juicy sweetness to the drink, while fresh basil leaves add a subtle peppery twist, creating a refreshing balance that wakes up your senses. It’s a perfect drink for when you want something light, tangy, and just a bit sophisticated.

Tamarind Cola Splash 
The Tamarind Cola Splash is a tangy, fizzy twist on your usual soda, blending the boldness of cola with the sharp, sour kick of tamarind. Imagine sipping it on a sweltering day, the zing of tamarind taking you back to childhood summers spent savouring tamarind candies under the sun.
