Mango Panna Recipe!

Summers are here and all we want is a cool drink going down our throat and refreshing our soul. There are a lot of flavoured drinks available in market but we should avoid having too many of them since they are rich in preservatives. We can make a lot of those drinks at home. One of such summery drinks is Aam Panna. This is made of raw mango and has a cool refreshing effect. It can be stored for about 4-5 days so you can make in bulk once a week and relish for the next few days. Let’s see how we make this.

Step 3: Once the pressure is released off the cooker, add sugar to the mangoes.
