We make panagam for Rama navami and Tamil new year. Its a very flavourful , delicious and a healthy drink. Its a mix of flavourful spices like cardamom , edible camphor , dry ginger powder and cloves sweetened with jaggery . Neer mor is nothing but spiced buttermilk.. We make this on Rama navami and Tamil new year day and offer to god. I learnt both these recipes from my MIL. She prepares these drinks well in advance ( 2-3 hrs before drinking) so that all the flavours gets infused into the water and it will be very tasty while drinking.. So I too follow the same way and I make panakam at night for the next day consumption.. Neer more tastes the best when you make it at least two hours before drinking.. Keep it in refrigerator and serve chilled during summer !
INGREDIENTS
1 cup - 240ml
- Water – 1 cup
- Powdered jaggery – 3 tbsp

- Cloves – 1 or 2 nos

METHOD
- Crush the cardamom with skin and cloves slightly and add them to a cup of water. Soak a small piece of tamarind and add the extract to the water. Instead of tamarind extract, you can add lemon juice.
