How to Make Sonth Panak Ginger Tingler

  1. In a saucepan, dissolve 1 cup (200g) of jaggery (or granulated sugar) in 4 cups (950ml) of water over medium heat. Stir until completely dissolved.
  2. Add 1 inch knob of ginger (peeled and grated), 1/2 teaspoon black salt (sendha namak), 1/4 teaspoon cumin powder, and a pinch of black pepper. Stir well to combine.
  3. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat and let it simmer gently for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
  5. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher or serving container, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. Garnish with a ginger slice or mint sprig before serving chilled.
