Sea Buckthorn Drink- Spiti Magic, Spiti
Last year when we were trekking in Spiti we were introduced to this refreshing drink called Spiti Magic. When asked what is it made of, pat came the reply- Sea-Buckthorn! Now what was that?
We were patiently explained that it is made of the same thing that Leh Berry is made of! Now that felt familiar as Leh Berry is available even in the plains.

Spiti Magic- Sea-Buckthorn Drink
When I sipped it first, I was not sure if I liked Spiti Magic, after all it had a strange taste. But gradually over the trek, I grew to like the drink. So next time you find yourself in Spiti, try it. They also make tea of Sea-Buckthorn that is also different and has a tangy taste! But I somehow prefer my tea boiled and with milk and sugar! Unless I am trekking.

It sounds like Buckley’s advertising: "It tastes awful, but it works."
Fida, thanks for the comment. Believe me it is a matter of getting used to the taste, it didn't taste awful :D
I have seen to many acres of sea buck thorn bushes in ladakh . I really wish the local ladakhi earn some revenue from them .
I too hope so Paul, I too hope so and thanks for pointing the link to SEMCOL. Do you maintain that blog?
Now that's something to look out for, I guess.
:D
Yes, definitely try it, quite refreshing after a walk.
