		Here is a glass of Thandai for you. Thandai is a traditional Indian cold drink prepared with a mixture of almonds, fennel seeds, watermelon kernels, rose petals, pepper, vetiver seeds, cardamom, saffron, milk and sugar. Really good work with Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award! It was a pleasant surprise seeing it as a DYK hook and tagged along with Navika Sagar Parikrama. Thank you.
