Navratri 2025: The grand festival of Navratri has begun across the country. During this time, devotees observe a fast to seek the blessings of Goddess Durga. This nine-day festival isn't limited to worship, but it's also crucial to keep the body refreshed. According to the fasting rules, onions, garlic, and many grains and spices are avoided, which can make it difficult to maintain energy.

In such a situation, light, sattvik, and energy-packed drinks help you stay energized throughout the day. Those fasting during Navratri can prepare these drinks in minutes and drink them any time, morning or evening. Let us tell you about some easy, delicious, and sattvik drinks to make during fasting.

This shake is not only creamy and tasty but also provides instant energy. Drinking it in the morning or afternoon helps you feel light and refreshed throughout the day. To make the shake, peel the banana and put it in a blender. Then, add milk and honey and blend until smooth. You can then add ice cubes and dried fruits as per your preference.
