Holi 2020: Not Just Thandai; Experiment With These Refreshing Drinks This Festival

As we inch towards the fun festival of Holi, excitement has started building up. Preparations have already begun and markets are brimming with different Holi colours, toys, water balloons and Holi-special foods. This year, Holi falls on March 10, which marks the end of the spring season and welcomes summers. The festival of colours is incomplete without indulging in scrumptious foods and refreshing drinks. Thandai is a must, but there are many other drinks besides plain thandai that you can serve if you are hosting a Holi party for your friends and family.
