I have never heard of this summer cooler with raw mango. I was introduced by one of my relatives a few years ago. Though I liked the drink very much, I don’t know till date why I didn’t try this at home. Last week when I got a sudden craving for this raw mango drink and to my luck a friend of mine was getting ready to visit the Indian store for vegetable shopping and send me an SMS as to what I needed from there. Without any second thought, I replied to her that I wanted 2 raw mangoes. The next day I made this and thoroughly enjoyed the aam ka paana. So I am sharing the recipe for Aam panna today.

METHOD:
Pressure cook the raw mango till 2 whistles You can cook it as it is. No need to cut. Take out the skin and scoop the pulp of the mango.
Strain the excess water and add sugar, salt, chaat masala, jeera powder, and crushed pepper to this. Mix it well. I just pulsed in the mixer for even mixing.
You can freeze this concentrated pulp in the refrigerator and serve it whenever u want. I put a very small portion in the ice cube tray( 2 cubes) and mixed it with a 3/4 cup of water and had it on the next day. If using on the same day, add 2 tbsp of pulp mixture to a serving glass and add 1 cup of water and add ice cubes. Mix it well before serving.
Note:
Sugar can be replaced with jaggery too. The quantity of sugar depends upon the sweetness of the raw mango. If it is too sour add little extra sugar. You can use semi-ripe mango too. You can add mint leaves before serving. A dash of lemon juice can also be added while serving
