Healthy Appetizer Drink Amla Sharbet! Amla is Indian Gooseberry full of vitamin C and antioxidants. It’s also a great cooler in summer, refreshes your body and builds up immunity. In Ayurveda amla is known for it’s benefits. It’s great for hair, skin, digestive system and nourishes body.

Amla + Palak = amla palak sharbet. For people who don’t know what is palak? palak are spinach leaves. Also added some mint leaves idea was to make something healthy without much effort. I love juices but to make them everyday is headache for me. Hence I thought of coming up with something healthy which I can drink daily with one time effort. That’s me looking for shortcuts and quick way of making healthy recipes.
Spinach is great for iron hence this Amla Sharbet has a great nutritional value. Also I use less sugar for less calories so you could add more sugar as per your preference. You could use organic jaggery to make it more healthier.
