Kairich Panha | Aam Ka Panna

By Pshinde2109 @pshinde2109


Kairi Panha is a traditional Maharashtrian Raw Mango Drink. 'Kairi Panhe' or 'Kairiche panhe' is a Maharashtrian name for this Raw Mango Drink or Aam ka panna. My mom makes it every summer. Specially at Ramnavami occasion, every year there is Bhajani program at my mothers place and she makes 'Kairich panhe' for all people. It is very awesome drink and I also made with her notes only.


Mangoes are available in plenty only in the summer months and the raw mango drink can be made in March and April when the raw mangoes are available. You can make it into thick pulp and keep in the fridge and use it for a month. I make it with Jaggery and sugar also. I have given both the recipes here.


Kairi Panha will not only quench your thirst but also make you feel cool in the hot summer. It is a great refreshing drink.Instead of drinking some artificially flavored and sugar filled drink, try this raw mango drink.


1 big Green Raw Mango
1 cup Jaggery/Sugar
few saffron strands
1 tsp. cardamom powder

1.Remove skin of mango and cook in pressure cooker with 1/2 cup water for 3-4 whistles.
2.Once cool down, remove seed and take the pulp of mango in mixer .Add Sugar or Jaggery and blend it.
3.Add pinch of salt, cardamom powder and saffron to it.
4.Fill it in airtight glass bottle and keep it in refrigerator.
5.When you want to serve a drink, add 1/4th pulp into glass and a cup of cold water to it with ice cubes. Stir well.

Another way to store with Sugar syrup:

1.In a saucepan, add sugar and very little water to cover the sugar. Make sugar syrup to soft-ball consistency. Remove from heat. Pour cooked Raw Mango pulp in sugar syrup while sugar syrup is hot. Mix well and let it cool down.
2.Add pinch of salt, cardamom powder and saffron to it. Mix well. Fill it in airtight glass bottle and keep it in refrigerator.
3.When you want to serve a drink, add 1/4th pulp into glass and a cup cold water to it with ice cubes. Stir well.
