  1. Hi Dassana, it’s such a wonderful recipe, I m so excited at the concept of using paan leaves, I had to thank you, even before it’s made, will try it very soon!!????5 stars

  2. Hi, I was not sure but is not paan dangerous for health? Is there any paan which is harmless to health where can I find recipe? Also this gulkand paan shake is it healthy?

    1. paan as in only the leaf is good for health. its the betel nut/supari which is not good for health. you can use the paan leaves in drinks like these or even in milkshakes, ice creams and kulfi. gulkaand pan shake is good for the body. if the sugar intake is an issue, then add honey or jaggery powder instead of gulkand.

  3. Hi dassana, love ur recipes to the core. My daughter loves ur milkshake n fruit juice recipes. The step by step explanation is so easy n convenient. Thanks again for the recipe.5 stars

  4. Hi dassana, I love ur recipes n all of them a simple n the step by step explanation is very useful. I have tried many recipe’s n all have come out gud. Thanks again for all the milkshake n fruit juice recipes as my daughter is loving it.5 stars

  5. Hi dassana, I’m the new follower of your blog and also new to cooking world. Have tried few recipes from your blog and was all clicked. Thanks to your step by step explanation. Today I tried paan gulkand drink the taste was more of gulkand though i added everything in quantity you mentioned and also the color of drink was light brown. What would be the reason? How to retain the green color of paan? Thanks

    1. thanks akshath for the feedback. the light brown color is because of the gulkand. the gulkand must be highly concentrated and thats why it overpowered the paan flavors. next time when you prepare, add 2 to 3 more of the paan. also depends which paan you used. for retaining green color of pan, what you can adda few drops of lemon juice while grinding the paan leaves.

    1. dipa, gulkand is rose petal preserve usually added in paan or sweets. can also be added to milk based beverages. kids will love to have it plain. its easily available in market or in ayurveda shops. it has jam like consistency and very cooling for body. excellent for summers. if you live in india then you can order from baba ramdev website also – patanjaliayurved.net

  6. Your recipe sounds quite interesting 🙂
    For a similar drink, i had tried making a puree by grinding betel leaves with some water in a blender but that did not work. I found pieces of betel leaves separate with water turned a little green instead of a smooth puree like yours.
    What did I do wrong?

    Waiting for your help 😀

    1. amrita, you can use a chutney grinder for grinding the betel leaves with very little water, almost like a chutney. otherwise you need a very powerful blender.

        1. thanks kirti for trying this recipe as well. blender is alright. may be the the milk got blended too much, hence the cream. however even with the cream, the drink is delicious 🙂
