To relieve some hot summer heat you can blend some readymade buttermilk with 1/2 to 1 cucumber, and 1/4 of a bunch of cilantro leaves and add salt, crushed cumin powder( roasted).a tiny piece of mild green pepper or a very tiny piece of jalapeño can add zing to this drink.

This drink can be diluted with as much water as you like it to make it more watery.

It can serve as good lunchtime drink.

Alternately remove skin of cucumber and shred the cucumber and add it to a bowl of plain yogurt with salt, black pepper and mix and garnish with cilantro leaves.

Health benefits of this are probiotics from yogurt and health benefits of cucumber.
