Daily Recco, February 25: Turmeric Lassi, your immunity booster this summer

This is our second summer under the shadow of Covid. It is not the best place to be in, you would agree, but do we really have a choice? Summer is just round the corner and the 'Rona shows no signs of leaving us yet. Immunity is a keyword in all discussions on debates and the dining table, so it's never a bad idea to boost it up a bit. Turmeric Lassi - or Haldi Lassi - is just the answer.

You can also add all the ingredients to a blender and blend till smooth if you're in a hurry.
