Paruthipal

The drink Tamil grandmothers reached for when someone needed strength. Paruthipal is one of those recipes that nearly disappeared — a warming tonic of cotton seed, almond, peanut and crystal palm jaggery, spiced with ginger, pepper and cardamom. It's rich, restorative, and made the slow way, with palm jaggery instead of refined sugar. This is the cup you make for a new mother, a tired parent, or an elder who deserves a little looking-after — including yourself.

Good for: new mothers, anyone run-down or recovering, elders, and a warming
bedtime drink on cold nights.
