Ayurvedic Summer Coolers for Pitta Balance & Hydration offer a refreshing way to calm excess heat in the body, support digestion, and maintain hydration during hot weather.
This traditional cooling sharbat uses Gond Katira (Tragacanth Gum) — often called a “magical ingredient for the body” — along with sabja seeds, fennel, mint, and lemon to bring immediate relief from Pitta-related heat, acidity, and fatigue.
This natural drink is not just cooling; it’s deeply hydrating and perfect for summer.

- Reduces internal heat

When combined with fennel, sabja seeds, and lemon, the sharbat becomes a powerful coolant ideal for hot climates.
