Aam Panna is a popular Indian cooler that is specially made during Summer. This is a tangy, sweet drink with a hint of mint and cumin. It is usually made using Totapuri Mango.
Can you enjoy aam panna after summer is over?
When the mango season is almost getting over I make a huge batch of the concentrate and store it in the freezer for me to enjoy it for a little more longer.
I am a part Culinary Council of KitchenAid India. And the recipe for Aam Panna is my contribution to their Blog. Hence i have mostly used KitchenAid Products.

4 nos – Raw Mango, i use totapuri

Once the mixture is cooled, add cleaned mint leaves, roasted jeera and blend it in a blender to a smooth paste using the cordless hand blender.
This is a concentrate puree. Add 3 tbsp to one glass of cold water. Check the taste to adjust the amount of mint, cumin or sugar according to your taste. If the taste is fine then store it in an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator. You could also freeze them as ice cubes.
Add the concentrate to chilled water and top it with some fresh roasted cumin powder and serve.
* .The tangier the mango the better.
. In case of the mango not being too tangy and if the panna requires little tang, then add lime salt to adjust the taste.
.the colour of the panna also depends on the colour of the mango. It can turn out green or yellow.
