Who does not love to have sweet and sour, slightly spicy Aam Panna on a hot summer day!
Aam Panna is a roasted raw mango drink that is really popular on hot summer days across India. In Bengali, we call it Aam pora sharbat. It's really easy to make. If you have the pulp ready, you just need to add chilled water, salt, sugar, and spices and mix it and your Amm Pannais ready to drink.

Peel the skin off and take out the pulp.
Mash the pulp and keep it aside.
