In West Bengal where I live, thankuni pata (gotu kola leaves or bai bua bok leaves) is used for making some traditional dishes. Sukto is one of such traditional dishes. Some people even use it to make healthy & yummy thankuni pata er sharbat. It is believed that it has many medicinal benefits, so people often include this in the food menu and even prefer to have it as simple thankuni pata er sharbat like this one.

Thankuni pata & its drinks

Earlier I used to know that there is nobody except Bengali people love thankuni pata er sharbat but I was wrong. Actually, there are many other people also enjoy such drinks prepared with Centella Asiatica leaves. Bai bua bok juice is very popular drink in Thailand. It is nothing but another kind of drink prepared with thankuni pata. Some people also prefer dry Centella Asiatica leaves to make a special kind of green tea. Sometimes even fresh green Centella Asiatica leaves also used to make such green tea. I hope I will one day try such traditional Bai bua Bok drink in Thailand.
