While water is the best option for hydration, other beverages can also help. Coconut water is a natural electrolyte-rich drink that replenishes lost minerals. Buttermilk, infused with spices like cumin, is another traditional Indian remedy for cooling down. Fresh fruit juices, especially those made from watermelon or cucumber, provide hydration and essential nutrients. Avoid sugary sodas and caffeinated drinks, as they can dehydrate the body further.
