In cities like Karachi and Hyderabad, heatwaves are a common phenomenon before the monsoon season. However, over the past couple of years, these bouts of scorching weather have become more frequent and intense. Thankfully, there are certain precautions you can take during a heatwave to prevent heatstroke<\/a>. In other parts of the country like Multan, Lahore and Islamabad, weather conditions are different but you may still sweat and dehydrate. The key is to constantly take fluids to keep yourself hydrated. But the question here is what type of fluids?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here we have listed some of the most commonly used summer drinks that are not only available in markets but can also be made easily in homes. Purely organic, these drinks also have health benefits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Black currants commonly known as Falsa<\/em> are berries that grow in slightly cold weather in the Northern areas of Pakistan, Murree Hill and Azad Kashmir. Tart in flavour, Falsas <\/em>are consumed in their raw form as well as used to make Falsa Juice <\/em>which is a common summer drink that is consumed on a daily basis. The most common way to make its juice is simply blending water and black currants and adding sugar as per the need but some people prefer adding a fizzy drink instead of water to add variety to the taste. <\/p>\n\n\n\n These nutritious berries have numerous health benefits which are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Roasted Gram Flour Juice, also known as Sattu<\/em>, is believed to be the common man\u2019s protein. Made from roasted grams, sattu<\/em> is a flour-like powder commonly available in Punjab province and can also be found in other provinces. It has been a summer drink since ancient times but today it has come under the spotlight because of its health benefits. It is probably one of the easiest drinks to make in which you only have to mix roasted gram flour in cold water, add sugar or shakkar (raw sugar) <\/em>and mix it with a spoon. There is, however, a small trick to drink it. Due to its weight, sattu<\/em> will sit at the bottom of the glass if not continuously stirred so you will need to use a spoon to take care of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Other than refreshing your body and mind, sattu <\/em>has following benefits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Prune and tamarind juice, aka imli aloo bukhara sharbat, <\/em>is a drink that itself looks like an oasis in the scorching heat. Made from tamarind and prune (dried plum) is readily available in every market and on every street when summers are on peak during the months from May to September. It is a healthier and natural alternative to carbonated drinks and has high nutritional value. The drink is sour in taste due to the presence of tamarind but nothing beats a glass of imli aloo Bukhara sharbat<\/em> in summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A mixture of two naturally sourced ingredients, imli aloo Bukhara <\/em>has a lot of health benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The history of buttermilk, commonly known as lassi<\/em> in Pakistan, is as old as the history of milk. Made from yogurt, which is made from milk, lassi can<\/em> be consumed by adding either sugar or salt depending upon the taste of an individual. To beat the heat, a salted variant of buttermilk is usually consumed in Pakistan. However, the sweet variant is preferred by adults and children alike early in the morning especially in villages. It wouldn\u2019t be wrong to call it an ancient smoothie. It is made by blending water with yogurt and adding sugar or salt as per the preference but beware, the sweet lassi<\/em> can make you sleepy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are some benefits of consuming lassi:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Since summers are here and the temperature is gradually rising, use these drinks which are pretty simple to make at home.

In the southern and south-western parts of the country, in particular, summers can last for up to nine to 10 months, which can be exhausting. The temperature in some of these parts rises close to 50 degrees Celsius and, in Sindh, the average temperature during summer stays between 35 and 45 degrees Celsius. However, the scorching heat can be bearable if you can get hold of cold beverages. No, not the carbonated ones.
