End your fast right: 5 refreshing and light Iftar drinks (No sugar!)
Fasting during Ramadan is important for everyone, which means not eating or drinking anything from sunrise to sunset. Iftar meals are delicious and come in many varieties, but a cool, light drink is essential this month.
Some people make the mistake of choosing sugary or thick juices, which can make them feel sleepy and lazy the next time they pray, and consuming a lot of sugar every day is unhealthy.
It’s a good idea to drink sugar-free drinks to stay active and healthy. Switching to sugar-free options can bring positive changes to your skin and body by the end of the month. To help you out, we have five sugar-free, light and refreshing iftar drinks. These drinks will keep you fresh and energised throughout Ramadan.
5 sugar-free drinks for Iftaar
1. Mint lemonade
Mint lemonade is a classic drink with an appeal, infused with citrus aromas. Squeeze a fresh lemon into a pitcher, add a handful of mint leaves, and sweeten it with a sugar-free sweetener like stevia. Mix well and add soda if you want a little foam. This drink not only hydrates but also provides a refreshing energy boost.
2. Rose chaas
Buttermilk or Chaas takes on a new dimension with the addition of fragrant rose water. In a blender, combine low-fat yoghurt, cold water, a pinch of rock salt, and a few drops of rose water. To sweeten without adding sugar, choose a natural sweetener such as honey or date syrup. Blend until smooth and frothy. This mixture not only cools the body but also gives traditional buttermilk a hint of floral sweetness.
