With summer season and mangoes both at its peak I am sure everybody must have enjoyed kairicha panha /kairi panhe /aam panna/Raw mango drink which is  my favorite Marathi beverage: panha, a drink made with raw mangoes


Today I am posting about kairi panha gar  that means raw mango pulp or instant mix for kairi panhe  which can be made & preserved in fridge so that you need not have to boil mangoes every time you want to enjoy delicious panhe to beat the summer heat .This is my moms recipe & if stored in freezer this will last for an year . you can prepare this panhyacha gar in bulk & freeze it so that you can enjoy kairi panha throughout the year even when there are no raw mangoes in market

'Kairi Panhe' or 'Kairi che panhe' is a maharashtrian name for this raw mango drink. Kairi means 'raw mango' in marathi language. 'Aam(mango) Panna' is a Hindi name for this drink.

The hot summer makes you long for a cool satisfying drink. Instead of drinking some artificially flavored and sugar filled drink, try this raw mango drink - Kairi panha that will not only quench your thirst but also make you feel cool in the hot summer. It is a great refreshing drink.
