Figs - Lemon Juice .( Figs and Lemon).

Figs and Lemon juice is very refreshing drink. Figs can be dried and kept in summer and use it whenever you need it.

Figs help us to be healthy in a way. People who are  suffering from the himoglobin count in the blood cell , can have this drink regularly and keep themselves healthy. Pure  figs concentrate is available in Malenaadu ( Sagar - Shivmogga side in Karnataka ). You can get dried figs also here.
I have used the dried figs. You get a concentrate of figs in Sagar/Shimogga/Karnataka /India. They do collect the figs after it is completely grown and prepare the concentrate in natural way.
Figs are collected and soaked with sugar or jaggery and kept it in the sun. Figs completely absorb sugar and it is then turned as liquid. No artificial chemical added. The concentrate then filled in the bottle and kept it for using it. I was lucky to get a bottle of juice.

Dry Figs : 10 to 12.  ( or concentrate : 3 to 4 Table spoons ).
