These thalis based upon the three vital dosha’s (vata, pitta, kapha) using seasonal organic produce, and hence the menu varies. All the items are freshly cooked daily.

BEVERAGES
MOON MILK
Cows milk is considered valuable in Ayurveda (one of the oldest holistic healing systems). It is described as nutritional food with an anti-ageing aid. In Ayurveda, the body can process warm milk better than cold, before consumption the milk should be boiled with spices several times, to make it even more digestible for our body.
Moon milk, with it’s roots in Ayurveda, uses this method of preparation of milk for a calming effect on our body and to boost the bodily immunity.
Moon Milk is made in four steps:
Base milk. At Ojas we prefer to use ahimsa (cruelty-free) cows milk, and oat milk for plant-based Moon Milks as oats are useful to manage the symptoms of anxiety which is due to vata imbalance.
Spices. Home-made spice mix.
Adaptogens. At Ojas we use Ashwaganda, Moringa, and Tulasi powder. Adaptogens are natural herbal substances used to help the body adapt to stress.
Tastes. The Moon Milks are crafted keeping the body types in mind.
