Dehydration is extremely common during the summer months, making it absolutely essential to stay hydrated at all times. However, it is not necessary to drink plain water to meet the body’s hydration levels. You can always try infused drinks or even have a summer tea that will help your body cool off and fight the sweltering heat.

Taapsee Pannu’s nutritionist Munmun Ganeriwal shared an easy summer cool tea from her book Yuktahaar: The Belly and Brain Diet that can be made easily, and also helps fight common summer issues like acidity, nausea, bloating, and loss of appetite.
