Refreshing Drink - Odisha Fusion style
Tanka Torani with Foxtail Millet
Description
Tanka Torani is a refreshing, rice-based drink from the Indian state of Odisha. I’ve added a twist to the traditional recipe by replacing rice with Foxtail Millet, making it diabetic-friendly and guilt-free to enjoy.
The recipe for Foxtail Millet Tanka Torani is straightforward, with a watery consistency typical of this probiotic drink. However, you can adjust the thickness to suit your preference. It’s best prepared in large quantities and stored in the refrigerator for a quick, cooling treat anytime, especially during the summer. The result is a drink that’s not only delicious but also incredibly refreshing!
