This tea has medicinal values,my mom makes this now and then …and we like this very much.Especially when we have cold,this one soothes throat and its very appetizing too…Also sometimes we feel pitham too much in our body and have drowsiness,vomiting sensation in empty stomach. This tea helps a lot for this problem.
Ingredients:
| Coriander seeds/Vara kothamalli/Daniya | 3 tblsp |
| Palm sugar or palm sugar crystals(pana vellam/karuppati or panag kalkandu) | 1 tblsp |
| Honey | 1 tsp |
| Lemon juice | 1 tsp |
| Ginger | 1 inch piece |
Method:
- Grind coriander seeds in mixer coarsely.
- Boil 2 cups of water and add the powdered coriander,crushed ginger,palm sugar crystals( I didn’t add, I added jaggery instead) and boil till 2 cups of water gets reduced to 1 cup.
- Strain to serving cup and squeeze the lemon and mix in the honey.
- Enjoy hot!! You can replace lemon with 2-3 tbsp of milk too!
Do try this,am sure you all will love this!

October 29, 2009 at 8:38 amwow, your lunch box is superb, seeing them at this of the morning, I thought if I could get one like that, I make something like your kothamalli thanni, only with some more ingredients, I made them 3 days back and kept drinking 4 to 5 times a day to get rid of my upset tummy and blocked nose, Both the clicks are awesome.
